Genealogy is a science that appeals to the normal and 
healthy mind of all intelligent human beings. Its methods 
have developed to give aid in satisfying an inborn human 
craving to know, in so far as it is possible to accurately 
determine it, the vital facts concerning one’s forebears. It is 
essentially democratic in its appeal. Emphatically it is not 
the prerogative of the temporarily rich and the self-regarded 
aristocrat. 


John R. Totten 



preface 

A family history is full of delightful surprises and discoveries to one 
who chooses to make it a study. It has also many disappointments and 
baffling problems, and many tangles to be straightened out. Never-the- 
less it proves to be such an elusive and fascinating subject that one is 
led on and on, finally becoming firmly held in the bonds of its peculiar 
charm. Like many other interesting subjects, the more meagre and in¬ 
complete the material the more fascinating the quest becomes. In the 
search for some ancestral line, one small bit of data or tradition may 
often be a clue to something else, so that little by little the obscure 
points are revealed, and in the end one’s patience and perseverance are 
richly rewarded. 

At the beginning of my research on the Boone family, the original 
object of tracing a Revolutionary ancestor was almost lost sight of when 
curious old records of his forefathers came to light. It was then that 
three discoveries were made, to which, it may be truthfully said, this 
present volume owes its existence. These discoveries were:— 

First, no comprehensive genealogy of the Boone family had ever 
been published. 

Second, several valuable sources of early Boone history were in ex¬ 
istence: notably, the original manuscript of the old James Boone geneal¬ 
ogy; the early records of the Society of Friends (Quakers) in Pennsyl¬ 
vania; and the Draper Collection of Manuscripts in the Library of the 
Historical Society of Wisconsin. 

Third, many Boone descendants were deeply interested in the fam¬ 
ily’s history and proud of their traditional relationship to Daniel Boone 
the pioneer, yet lacked the records which would enable them to trace 
their ancestry back to the first Boone ancestor in America. 

The work of compiling this genealogy was undertaken with the ob¬ 
ject of drawing together the many valuable old records of the family 
and preserving them in compact and enduring form which would be 
easily accessible to members of the family and others who might be inter¬ 
ested. At the same time it was thought advisable to collect for posterity 
all available records of the present generation, lest they might become 
lost or rendered obscure by the passing of years.

preface 


Such a purpose, however, could not have been accomplished alone 
and unaided. It was made possible only by the generous and untiring 
cooperation of other members of the Boone family. In addition to the 
help which they have rendered by contributing records, their interest and 
encouragement have made it possible to “carry on” in times of discourage¬ 
ment and to bring the work finally to a conclusion. It gives me pleasure 
to acknowledge my indebtedness and express my gratitude to all those 
whose names follow: 

To Miss Bess Hawthorne (No. 4328), of La Place, Illinois, my valued 
and capable assistant for several months, is due the credit of helping 
to prepare the manuscript for the printer’s hands, and of rendering every 
possible assistance towards completing and perfecting the work. She has 
also contributed data on more than five hundred descendants of Mary 
(Boone) Tribble, daughter of George Boone and niece of Daniel Boone 
the pioneer. 

Mr. Jesse Procter Crump (No. 3850) of Independence, Missouri, a 
great-great-grandson of Daniel Boone, has spent many years collecting 
material on Daniel Boone and his descendants. The splendid results of 
this research he has contributed to this book, so that with a few ex¬ 
ceptions, the descendants of Daniel Boone which it contains are almost 
entirely from his collection. He has also written for this genealogy the 
special biography of Daniel Boone the Kentucky pioneer, and has by 
his own efforts succeeded in proving the parentage of Daniel Boone’s 
wife Rebecca, a subject which has been disagreed upon, and which has 
never before been authentically presented in print. 

Miss Mary Josephine Roe (No. 1663) of Gilbert, Ohio, a descendant 
of the Lincoln as well as of the Boone family, has also contributed the 
result of many years of research. From her collection we have the de¬ 
scendants of Benjamin Boone, son of George Boone III, although a part 
of these (the descendants of his daughter Dinah) were first contributed 
by Miss Roe to Mr. William F. Reed for his “Descendants of Thomas 
Durfee of Portsmouth, Rhode Island.” To Miss Roe is also due, more 
or less directly, the acquisition of many descendants of George Boone IV, 
and other material on the Pennsylvania lines. 

Mrs. Willia Lee Middlekamp (No. 2531), of Pomona, California, has 
gathered for this book a remarkably complete record of several hundred 
descendants of Elizabeth (Boone) Gopher, daughter of George Boone and 
niece of Daniel Boone the pioneer. As Mrs. Middlekamp’s collection 
was gathered very recently, it contains record of many soldiers of the 
World War, all of which are carefully authenticated. 

I am exceedingly grateful to my husband, James R. Spraker, for his 
constant help, his valuable criticisms, and his never-failing interest through¬ 
out the work.

The Draper Collection of Manuscripts in possession of the Historical 
Society of Wisconsin has proven to be a veritable mine of information 
on the Boone family. The Boone papers are principally in the form 
of interviews obtained sixty or seventy years ago by Dr. Lyman C. 
Draper, an early secretary of that society. Some of these interviews were 
obtained directly or indirectly from the early pioneers who had emigrated 
from North Carolina into Kentucky with Daniel Boone and his associates. 
Others were from members of a later generation who were born in Ken¬ 
tucky or went there as children, yet at such an early date that some of 
the first historical events of Kentucky came within their memories. 
Much of this information Dr. Draper incorporated in his ‘‘Life of Daniel 
Boone’^ which was unfinished at the time of his death and remains in 
manuscript form. To the Historical Society of Wisconsin I am greatly 
indebted for the privilege of obtaining much Boone material from this 
valuable collection. It is referred to throughout this book as “Draper Mss.” 

This is purely a history of the Boones in America. No effort has 
been made to trace the family back into English records. It will be 
noticed that in the book no use is made of the Boone coat-of-arms with 
which many American descendants are familiar. This is because I have 
been unable to find any evidence that George Boone III, our immigrant 
ancestor, either used or was entitled to use this coat-of-arms. It may 
have even belonged to some contemporary branch of the family in Eng¬ 
land, and never have come down in our line at all. Bearing in mind that 
George Boone III was a weaver and his father a blacksmith, it seems 
neither suitable nor reasonable for us to appropriate a coat-of-arms simply

because it carries the name of Boone. It would be very interesting if 
the mazes and intricacies of English heraldry would sometime reveal to 
us just how our family stands in regard to this coat-of-arms. Let us 
hope that such an investigation will some day be made. 

In a family so imbued with the spirit of migration and adventure 
as this one, it is not surprising to find that much data has been lost 
or never recorded. Among people who have lived for generations in one 
locality, we find that genealogical history is usually quite complete. 
It must be very easy to learn much of a great-grandmother whose cups 
and pitchers, spinning-wheel and copper kettle occupy their old familiar 
corners, as they do in many New England homes. When, however, 
young people married and moved West with all their worldly goods on a 
few pack-horses, it is not strange that they failed to burden themselves 
with the old family records, and even failed to remember the family 
traditions, so filled were their later years with arduous labor in a new 
frontier country. I think we may well be all the prouder of them for 
this, and thankfully record what little they have left us. 

Every effort has been made to make this genealogy as authentic 
and accurate as possible. Proof has been required of every statement 
concerning persons born before 1825. Persons born after that date have, 
as a rule, come within the memories of those yet living, so that matters 
concerning them are within the actual knowledge of the present genera¬ 
tion and are not merely tradition. With each biography or family 
group, references have been given for all data obtained from books or 
public records. Where no references are given, it is to be understood 
that the information came from family records only, supplied usually 
by a descendant or close relative of that particular group. The reader 
may rest assured that every relationship stated has stood the test of very 
careful collation before finding a place in the records. With the exception 
of a large group taken from “The Descendants of Thomas Durfee”, by 
Reed, and a few other scattered names, the data on all families from the 
fifth generation down to the present has been collected especially for this 
genealogy and has never before been published. 

While realizing to the fullest extent the imperfections and short¬ 
comings of this work, I yet trust that it will fulfil to some extent its 
purpose of preserving the chronicles and records of this family. I also 
hope that those who read its pages may derive some measure of the 
pleasure and interest which I have experienced while preparing this his¬ 
tory of the descendants of George Boone III, our first American ancestor.

HOW TO TRACE A LINE OF ANCESTRY IN THIS BOOK 

Each descendant of George and Mary Boone is numbered in small 
print when his name first appears among the children of his parents. 
If he marries and has children, his name appears again in the following 
generation, bearing the same number, this time as the head of a family, 
in large print. If a name is to be thus repeated there will be a small 
cross (+) before the name and number when first given. 

Thus in order to trace the ancestry of any one person, first find his 
name as given in small print. Above his name will be found the bio¬ 
graphy of his parent, with name and number in large print. Turning 
back to the preceding generation, find this parent’s name and number 
in small print, headed by his parent. This is the grandparent of the 
person you started from. Trace the numbers back in this way through 
the generations until George Boone III is reached. To trace a person’s 
descendants reverse the process and trace from the early to the late 
generations. In a few cases it will be found that descendants have not 
been given a serial number. This is because their names were received 
after the numbering had been finished. 

The ancestral line in parentheses following each subject’s name, 
such as James Boone {Samuel^; William^; George^), means simply that 
James is a son of Samuel, who was a son of William who was a son of 
George; or that James’ father was Samuel, his grandfather William and 
his great-grandfather George. When a woman’s name appears in the 
ancestral line, her full maiden name is used. The small superior figure 
indicates the generation. 


OLD AND NEW STYLE OF TIME 

It must not be forgotten, in reading many early records, especially 
those of the Society of Friends, that dates prior to 1752 are usually given 
in the Old Style or Julian Time. A simple explanation of this change 
of time is to be found in “Our Calendar”, a pamphlet by Gilbert Cope 
of West Chester, Pa., an eminent genealogist. It reads:— 

“An act of Parliment was passed in 1751, prescribing the adoption of 
the Gregorian Calendar throughout Great Britian and her colonies; making 
the succeeding year begin with the first of January and dropping eleven 
nominal days (3-13) from the month of September, 1752, so that what would 
have been the third of the month was called the 14th. The Quakers at their 
yearly meeting adopted this method, directing the members to recognize the 
change of style, and decreeing that thereafter the months should be numbered 
beginning with January. Formerly their numbering had begun with the 
month called March.”

Hence by merely adding eleven days to a date given in Old Style, 
we have the corresponding date according to our present calendar. In 
Julian or “Old Style” time, prior to 1752, the year began March 25th. 
In Gregorian or “New Style” time, the year begins with January let. 






Family history is interwoven with our country's history, 
particularly when its roots strike deep into Colonial times,

pDone Jfamilp in Amenta 

The history of this family has its foundation in the brief genealogical 
data which was brought from England, and which was preserved by John 
Boone, son of George Boone III. John, who was the scholar of the family 
at that time, gave the information to his nephew James Boone, also a 
scholar and family historian, who recorded the data both accurately and 
beautifully in the remarkable old document known as the James Boone 
Genealogy. A reproduction is here given of the original manuscript, 
which is preserved by the Historical Society of Wisconsin, and a trans¬ 
cription of it may be found on page 583 of the Appendix. Including the 
two generations of English ancestry which were recorded by James Boone 
in this manuscript, and back of which we have no knowledge, our family 
records now cover twelve generations,—twelve generations of a people 
more rough-hewn than fashionable, more practical than artistic, more 
constructive than idealistic; retaining the strong, forceful characteristics 
of its early ancestry, yet progressing with the times in matters of de- 
velopement and education. 

After coming to the New World the Boone Family quickly became 
part and parcel of Colonial America. English it was, in blood and in¬ 
heritance; but American it became, in deed and spirit, giving generation 
after generation to the best interests of American colonization and citizen¬ 
ship. Never faltering, never failing, it pressed onward with the wes¬ 
tern frontiers of civilization which then swept in successive waves across 
the continent. Not the sword and gilded snuff-box, but rather the 
musket and woodman’s axe were the symbols of this rugged family 
of pioneers. Not the perfume of courtly ballrooms and assemblies, but 
rather the breath of the forest and tang of the log fire were the atmos¬ 
phere in which it labored and rejoiced. The mountains and illimitable 
plains furnished the home and playground which developed that splendid 
physical strength and moral courage without which no family can live 
and prosper. In pioneer settlements its members became a part of the 
industrious, home-building element which has so largely determined the 
eventual character of our great western states. 

With the passing of those pioneer days so fraught with danger and 
hardship, we find the Boone family adjusting itself to more quiet pur-

suits, although ever ready to be at the forefront of any progressive move¬ 
ment requiring action and initiative. Its later members have joined the 
great ranks of those who are engaged in the fields of commerce, agri¬ 
culture, finance and education, and thus are doing their humble share 
towards making the United States the greatest and most progressive of 
all nations.

II. GEORGE BOONE Second (son of George Boone First), 
born in or near the City of Exeter in Devonshire, England. Died aged 
sixty. He was a blacksmith. 

He married Sarah Uppey, who died aged eighty, and who ‘^never

(ITflirb (generation 

III. GEORGE BOONE Third (son of George Boone Second and 
wife Sarah Uppey), born in 1666 at Stoak, England, a village near the 
City of Exeter in Devonshire; died 27 July (Old Style) or 7 Aug. (New 
Style), 1744, in Exeter township, Berks Co., Pa., aged seventy-eight years. 

Married Mary Maugridge (b. 1669 in Bradninch, England, eight 
miles from Exeter in Devonshire), a daughter of John and Mary (Milton) 
Maugridge. 

George Boone and wife Mary were members of the Society of Friends 
(Quakers) in Callumpton, Devonshire, from which Meeting they took a 
letter of recommendation to the Society of Friends in America. Whether 
they were dissatisfied with their condition as Quakers in England, or 
whether they were impelled by that desire for adventure and travel 
which was later so strongly manifested in Daniel Boone and his brothers, 
will never be known. On the 17th of August, 1717, with six children, 
George Boone and his wife left the town of Bradninch in Devonshire 
and went to Bristol, where they set sail for America.

They had definitely decided to put the Old World, with its customs 
and traditions, behind them, to brave the danger and uncertainty of an 
ocean voyage, and to link their fortunes with the New World which 
beckoned so alluringly from across the sea. This momentous decision 
was not made without wise consideration, however, for their three eldest 
children, George, Squire and Sarah, had been sent to America a few 
years before to investigate conditions. This was in 1713 or earlier, as 
we have record of the marriage of George Boone, Jr., in America in 1713. 
There is an interesting field for thought in the question of what influences 
brought about this emigration which means so much to all of us who 
. are their descendants. One tradition is that William Penn was a friend 
of George Boone, and had persuaded him to emigrate to America. There 
is no doubt that their Quaker affiliation had much to do with the matter. 

George Boone was a weaver by trade, and had no doubt, by frugal 
living and diligent application to his trade, and we know not what other 
sacrifices, saved up quite a sum of money for this faring forth. Being 
people of simple tastes, they probably took with them only such ‘^goods 
and chattels’’ as could be conveniently carried. 

No record was left of the long and perilous voyage across the At¬ 
lantic, and even the name of the vessel is unknown. They arrived at 
Philadelphia on the 29th of September (Old Style) or 10th of October 
(New Style), 1717. We like to picture them as being met by friends as 
they stepped onto the crude landing place at Philadelphia. At least we 
can be reasonably sure that they were met with open arms by their three 
children, George, Squire and Sarah, who poured into their eager ears 
bright accounts of the wonderful new land which was to become their 
future home. It must have been a happy reunion for George and Mary 
Boone, who had been separated for several years from their three eldest 
children. Once more they were surrounded by all their beloved sons and 
daughters, who were destined to become the progenitors of a family as 
staunch, sturdy and typically American as any which ever helped to 
build our nation. The little group had come to stay; to become a part 
of the very root and fiber of the New World. There was no looking back¬ 
ward, or thought of returning to England with possible gains. It is 
reasonable to suppose that of all the family the mother may have been 
the only one who sometimes, in the years that followed, longed for the 
quiet peace of the old home village in England, with its mellow church 
bells, old garden hedges, and kindly gossiping neighbors. 

It seems that when George Boone III and his family arrived in 
America they had as yet decided upon no definite location for a home. 
They went first to Abington, a village near Philadelphia, where the eldest 
son George had married and had lived since 1713. There they remained 
a few months; then went to North Wales in Philadelphia Co., where 
they lived some two years; and finally in 1720, to Oley township in Phil¬ 
adelphia Co. (now Exeter township in Berks Co.). There George Boone

SURVEY OF GEORGE BOONE’S LAND

took a grant of land and founded his permanent home. When the divis¬ 
ions were made, in the township of Oley and County of Philadelphia, 
the new township was called ‘‘Exeter’’ in honor of the old home in Eng¬ 
land. There may also have been other families in that locality who came 
from old Exeter, but George Boone and his sons appear to have been 
the most prominent members of the community. 

Soon after their arrival in America they had become members of 
the Gwynedd Monthly Meeting of Friends. No doubt their early resi¬ 
dence in North Wales came within the scope of Gwynedd Meeting, which 
embraced also their new home in Oley. This latter section soon became 
a separate meeting called Oley Meeting, which name was later changed 
to Exeter Meeting. Several items concerning George Boone III, are 
found in the Friends’ Records, the earliest being as follows:— 

“10-31-1717” (Dec. 31) “George Boone, Sr. produced a certificate of his 
good life and conversation from the Monthly Meeting at Callumpton in 
Great Britain, which was read and well received.” 


In 1720, George Boone was called to account for allowing the court¬ 
ship between his daughter Mary and John Webb. Just how this was 
contrary to the rules and regulations of the Society we are not told, but 
George Boone acknowledged his fault in meeting:— 

“5-26-1720 George Boone has openW acknowledged in the meeting his 
forwardness in giving his consent to John Webb to keep company with his 
daughter in order to marry, contrary to ye established order amongst us.” 

The next record of George Boone is some eleven years later, when 
Gwynedd Meeting records that Oley Friends had appointed George 
Boone, Sr., one of two men to visit families within the verge of their 
meeting. This was approved by the Gwynedd Meeting. 

It is difficult to find any record of the land warrant of George 
Boone’s own property, although in the Minutes of the Proprietors of 
Pennsylvania, we find the following entry which seems to refer to prop¬ 
erty purchased for the son George:— 

“Agreed with George Boone of Gwynedd, Sr., for his son George, for 
400 acres of land at Oley, for 14 pounds per 100, and 1 shilling sterling quit 
rent, ye warrant dated ye 20th October, 1718.” (a) 

Having chosen what is now, and no doubt was then, a most beautiful 
piece of fertile, rolling land, George Boone built a log house upon it in 
1720. The site of the original house is marked by a boulder placed there 
by the Historical Society of Berks County, Pa. Thirteen years later, 
having prospered, he erected a larger house of stone near by, which is

still standing. The boulder referred to above is marked with the follow¬ 
ing inscription: 

House built in 1733 by 
GEORGE BOONE, grandfather of 
DANIEL BOONE 

Site of Geo. Boone’s log house, built about 1720 
Historical Society of Berks Co. 

On May 31st, 1917, the writer visited the George Boone home, about 
14 miles from Reading, Pa. This is a substantial, quaintly attractive 
stone house, said to be the one built by George Boone 3rd in 1733. 
The house is occupied by a thrifty German family which has 
kept everything about the place in most immaculate and ^^spic and 
span” condition, so that the place shows none of the signs of decay and 
disintegration which might be expected in so old a house. On the con¬ 
trary it looks quite equal to another hundred years or so of wear. The 
original stone house is intact, but additions have been built. The angle 
of the original roof remains, but on one side, where the roof had at first 
sloped down to a very low eave over the first floor, a second floor ex¬ 
tension has been raised, without disturbing or removing the original 
rafters, so that the house has the appearance of having a second floor 
addition built on top of the roof. The side nearest the road has a long 
low porch the entire width of the house, which is probably an addition. 
At the left of this is the real front of the house (facing the sun) with a 
quaint gabled portico before the door. There are few windows and many 
of these are narrow ones scarcely a foot wide, so built, it is said, as a 
protection against the intrusions of red-skinned visitors. The entire 
house, outbuildings, and all the fences are beautifully plastered and white¬ 
washed. This is the house which George Boone 3rd built for his children, 
remaining himself in the first log house, which is no longer standing. The 
stone house is probably about forty feet square. A stone set in or near 
one corner of the building bears the date 1733. There are two other 
buildings on the property. One is a stone two-story building over the 
spring, which bubbles up in a cellar room and passes out through an 
opening in the wall through a walled-in canal or trough about ten feet 
wide and forty feet long, finally meandering away in a stream through 
the meadow. At the end of this little canal on its banks, once stood 
the tanners’ vats used by George Boone and his family, who were tanners 
by trade. Directly back of the house at some distance stands another 
two-story stone building, now used for a corn crib and storage house. 
This bears a date stone over the door marked ‘T. B.” Back of and at 
either side of the homestead extend most beautiful meadows and rolling, 
well-cultivated farm lands. 

Having built the new house, George Boone refused for some reason 
to live in it himself, but turned it over to his children and continued to

reside in the log house until his death. It is quite possible that some of 
his married children were then living at home with young families, and 
that George Boone and his wife Mary preferred the quiet of the smaller 
home for themselves, as they were no longer young. When George 
Boone III died it is said that his remains were carried into the stone 
house and from there to his burial in the Friends’ burying-ground at 
Exeter Meeting House. An old family Bible records the fact that ‘‘when 
Grandfather died he left 8 children, 52 grandchildren and 10 great¬ 
grandchildren living, in all 70, being as many persons as the house of 
Jacob which came into Egypt.” 

In accordance with the custom of the Friends Society, no stones 
mark the graves of George Boone III and his wife Mary, but a far 
greater memorial is found in the thousands of descendants who unite 
in honoring their memory. 


Children:— 

(All born in England.) 

+ 1 George Boone IV, b. 13 July, 1690 (Old Style). 

2 Sarah Boone, b. 18 Feb., 1691 or ’92 (Old Style) or 29 Feb., 1792 (New 
Style); d. probably before 1744; m. 15 Mar., 1715, Jacob Stover, also 
spelled Stuber and Stowber. Her marriage is recorded in Christ Church, 
Philadelphia. She was one of the three eldest children of George Boone 
III, who came to America in advance of the parents; was married and 
settled in Oley township, Philadelphia Co. (now Berks), before their 
arrival. (See old James Boone Genealogy.) While she was the first 
of the family to settle in that locality, she evidently did not affiliate 
with the Friends Meeting there, as no data concerning hei appears in 
the Quaker records. She was no doubt absorbed by the German ele¬ 
ment into which she married. It is also possible that she died quite 
young, as it is recorded that her father, when he died in 1744, left eight 
children. As all the others are known to have survived their father, 
Sarah must have been the first one to die. Her descendants, if any, are 
unknown. We find that one Jacob Stauber was granted land, on Oley 
Creek, Philadelphia Co. (now Berks Co.), in 1714. (6) It is thought 

that Jacob removed to Virginia, probably after his wife’s death, for we 
find in Virginia record of one Jacob Stover’s sale of land in Augusta 
Co. (now Rockingham Co.), to George Boone of Oley; one tract of 500 
acres and another of 1000 acres described as near the end of North Moun¬ 
tain, on a small branch of the Shenandoah, part of 5000 acres laid out for 
Stover by the Council of Virginia July, 1730. In 1738 a wife Margaret 
(Stover) signed a deed for land sold by Jacob to another person. Mar¬ 
garet was probably a second wife, (c) 

+3 Squire Boone, b. 25 Nov., 1696. 

+4 Mary Boone, b. 23 Sept.. 1699. 

5 John Boone, b. 3 Jan., 1701 or ’02. (Old Style) or 14 Jan., 17Q2 (New 
Style), in Biadninch, Devonshire, England; d. Oct., 1785 in Exeter 
Twp., Berks Co., Pa. He never married; was a school teacher and mjau 
of some learning. It was he who preserved the record of the family 
btrths and deaths and passed them on to his nephew James (son of James 
and Mary) who compiled them into the quaint genealogy which has

come down to us. He died in his eighty-fourth year; having lived in 
America exactly 68 years. His will, which was signed 5 Oct., 1785, 
proven 22 Oct., 1785, mentions nephews Judah, Moses, James and Joshua; 
and Martha, wife of George Hughes, Rachel, wife of William Wilcoxson, 
Anne, wife of Abraham Lincoln, and Mary, wife of Thomas Lee; all of 
whom were children of his brother James. He also mentions an Isaiah 
Boone, (e) 

6 Joseph Boone, b. 5 Apr., 1704; d. 30 Jan., 1776, in his 72nd year; m, Cather¬ 
ine- (d. 31 Jan , 1778). Their descendants are not known, and no 

authentic knowledge of Joseph has been found except the above data 
from the old James Boone Genealogy, Several marriages under the 
name Joseph Boone appear at various dates in Exeter Records, the earli¬ 
est reading as follows:— 

“8-30-1733, Joseph Boone produced a paper of condempation for 
proceeding in marriage contrary to order,” 

Also a Joseph Boone, Jr., married in 1751, which may have 
been his son. It is said that Joseph resided on the farm in 
Berks Co., where a man named Washington Gulden lived in 
1860. (d) The name of Joseph Boone appears in a list of 76 

taxables in Exeter Twp., 1741 (/) and in the land warrants of 
Pennsylvania, a Joseph Boone received in Philadelphia Co., 200 acres 
Jan, 4, 1734; 200 acres Mar. 4, 1750; and 50 acres in Lancaster Co., 
Mar. 4, 1750. In an indenture concerning land of Squire Boone (the 
original of which is in possession of the Historical Society of Berks Co.) 
Squire’s property is described as adjoining lands of Joseph Boone, in 
1768.

Jfourtl) (Generation 

1 . GEORGE BOONE IV. (son of George^), born 13 July (0. S.) or 24 
July (N. S.), 1690, in the town of Bradninch, Devonshire, England, ‘‘about 
half past five in the afternoon’’; died 20 Nov., 1753, in Exeter town¬ 
ship, Berks County, Pa. (then Philadelphia Co.), in the 64th year of his 
age. (a) 

Married 27 July (O. S.) or 7 Aug. (N. S.), 1713, in Abington, Phil¬ 
adelphia, Pa., Deborah Howell (b. 3 Nov., 1691 [N. S.], d. 26 Jan., 1759), 
daughter of William and Mary Howell, (h) 

Accompanied by his brother Squire and sister Sarah, George Boone 
came to America a few years in advance of his parents and their other 
children, probably about 1713, and was married soon after his arrival. 
He settled at Abington, in Philadelphia Co., a village not far from Phil¬ 
adelphia, and in the Aleeting Records of the Abington Society of Friends 
we find the following entries regarding him:— 

“5-27-1713, George Boone, Jr., and Deborah, daughter of Wm. Howell, 
married.” 

“8-26-1713, George Boone produced a certificate from ‘Bradwitch’ in 
Devonshire, Great Britain, of his orderly and good conversation while he 
lived there, which was read and accepted.” 

At Abington, George Boone was appointed to take charge of the 
records of the Friends Society, and many of the old records now extant 
are in his writing. (Preserved in the Friends Libraries of Philadelphia.) 
These items' are also found in Abington Monthly Meeting Records:— 

“10-28-1716, George Boone delivered a large bound book in order to 
Transcribe over ye Minutes in ye M. Meeting Books.” 

“12-25-1716. Paid George Boone for a bound book, 14 S.—0 D.” 

“1-30-1718, Friends at this IMeeting do appoint Everard Bolton and 
Morris and Robert Fletcher to view ye Minutes that are recorded by George 
Boone and to agree with him for the transcription and pay him and give the 
Meeting acct. next month.” 

George Boone, was joined in 1717 by his father and family, who 
stayed in Abington but a few months and then located in North Wales, 
but it is probable that George Boone, Jr., continued to reside in Abington 
until he left there with his wife and children to settle at Oley in 1720. 
He probably taught school at Abington, as his nephew, James Boone, re- 



28 


tKfje Poone Jf amilp 


corded that George Boone IV, ''taught school for several years near 
Philadelphia; was a good mathematician and taught the several branches 
of English learning; and was a magistrate for several years/’ 

In 1718 he purchased land in Oley township, Philadelphia, Co. 
(now Exeter Twp., Berks Co.), which we find record of in the Minutes 
of the Proprietors of Pennsylvania:— 

"Agreed with George Boone, Jr., of Abington for 400 acres of land at 
Oley, at 14 pounds per hundred and one shilling sterling quit rent, for which 
a warrant is granted. Signed and dated the 4th of October, 1718.” (c) 

On 26 Dec., 1720, a certificate was granted by the Abington 
Meeting to George Boone and family to "settle in and towards Oley 
and join themselves to Gwynedd Meeting.” It can reasonably be sup¬ 
posed that they removed at about that time. 

The land warrants of Pennsylvania show many entries of land granted 
to George Boone in Philadelphia and Berks Counties, but which tracts 
are taken up by George Boone, Jr., and which by his father or younger 
relatives it is impossible to determine. It is said that when Exeter 
township was erected 7 Dec., 1841, out of the south west part of Oley 
township, including 13,500 acres, the survey was made by George Boone. 
(d) 

At their new home in Oley George Boone and his wife again became 
active in affairs of the Friends Society, this time under the fold of Gwy¬ 
nedd Meeting. They were probably instrumental in founding the new 
meeting which was later formed, and called Oley Meeting. On 24th 
Dec., 1736, George Boone and wife Deborah deeded to the Friends one 
acre of ground for a meeting-house and burying-place. The first meeting 
house stood upon this plot, although the present building is across the 
road, (e) See appendix, page 589. 

In the manuscript department of the library of the Historical Society 
of Pennsylvania (g)f there is an old letter written by George Boone, Jr., 
reading as follows: 

To William Peters, Atty. at Law, Phila. 

Exeter, ye 3rd day of 
May, 1745. 

Esteemed ffrd,— 

I having an opportunity at this time to send a few lines by my wife; 
Requesting thee pursuant to our discourse when I were last in town, to let me 
know whether I must attend at Chester Court or not, in order to a Tryal with 
Jacob Casdorp. If thee cannot attend thyself, deliver those papers I left 
with thee unto ye Attorney General. I should be well pleased to put some 
end to this affair. 

My wife will be some time in ye town so thee may send by her. 

I remain thy ffrd

From this it will be seen that George Boone was somewhat a “man 
of affairs”, an(i also that even in those (iays it was quite in order for the 
busy wife and mother to run down to the city for a few weeks of shop¬ 
ping, and recreation. However, Deborah HowelPs shopping was probably 
not for worldly trifles, as we are told that she was a preacher of some 
note in the Friends Society. Below is given an account of her which 
was published in “The Friend” (h), Vol. 32, 1858-9, page 403:— 

“DEBORAH BOONE was a daughter of William and Mary Howell, of 
Haverford, Chester County, Pa., and was born there 8 mo. 23 day 1691. (m) Her 
parents were valuable Friends, and were favored to see the fruit of their 
religious concern for their children’s everlasting good. Among others of 
them who early in life submitted to the Cross of Christ, was Deborah, the 
subject of this notice. On the 20th of the 6th mo. 1713, she was married to 
George Boone. Some years after her marriage, a dispensation of the min¬ 
istry of the gospel was committed to her. She was often led in her ministry 
to speak of the mercies and goodness of her Heavenly Father to her. Her 
appearances in the ministry were short and she seldom spoke, yet they were 
attended with life and received with love. At the first settling of Friends in 
the neighborhood of Exeter she and her husband removed there with their 
family. She was at times after this engaged with others in visiting the fam¬ 
ilies of Friends, in which she was remarkably favored. She was of generous 
disposition and charitable to the poor. About a year before her decease she 
became, through weakness of the body, unable to attend meetings, and during 
this time of suffering she was preserved in patience. To some who visited 
her, she expressed much love for Friends, and her earnest desire for the 
prosperity of the truth in that newly settled and remote part of the world. 
She deceased 1st. mo. 26th day 1759, aged about 67 years.” 

The will of George Boone IV, is recorded in Berks County, Pa., 
and reads as follows:— 

Will of George Boone of Exeter.

no other Mary Boone of marriageable age at that time. The Minutes

Style) or 6 December (New Style), 1696, in Devonshire, England; died 
2 January, 1765, in Rowan County, North Carolina. 

Married 23 Sept., 1720, in Berks Co., Pa., Sarah Morgan (b. 1700; 
d. 1777, according to supposed headstone), daughter of Edward Morgan, 
an early settler of the Welsh colony of Gwynedd in Berks Co., Pa. (See 
Sketch of Morgan Family.) 

Squire Boone accompanied his elder brother and sister to America 
a few years before the parents came in 1717. His marriage to Sarah 
Morgan is recorded in the records of the Society of Friends as follows 

Marriage of Squire Boone and Sarah Morgan. (6) 

Whereas, Squire Boone sone of George Boone of the county of Phila¬ 
delphia* and Province of Pennsylvania, yeoman, and Sarah Morgan, dau. 
of Edward Morgan of the said county and province, having declared their 
intentions of marriage with each other before two monthly meetings of ye 
people called Quakers, held at Gwynedd in the said county, according to ye 
good order used among them, whose proceedings therein, after deliberate 
consideration, and having consent of parents and relations concerned therein, 
their said proceedipgs are allowed of by said meeting. Now these are to 
certify whom it may concern that for the full accomplishment of their said 
intentions this 23d day of ye 7th month in the year of our Lord 1720, the 
said Squire Boone and Sarah Morgan appeared at a solemn assembly of the 
said people for that purpose appointed at their public meeting-place in 
Gwynedd aforesaid, and the said Squire Boone took the said Sarah Morgan 
by the hand (and) did in a solemn manner declare that he took her to be his 
wife, promising to be unto her a faithful and loving husband, until death 
should separate them, and then and there in the said assembly the said Sarah 
Morgan did likewise declare, (etc. etc.)

After their marriage Squire and Sarah Boone first settled in Bucks 
County, Pa., if we may accept local tradition there and the following 
statement which appeared in a newspaper clipping sent to the compiler, 
who has, however, been unable to ascertain the names of either the news¬ 
paper or the writer of the article. 

“OLD BOONE HOMESTEAD.—Finely located on rising ground, 
overlooking the Upper Neshaminy, in New Britain Township, Bucks Co., 
Pa., stands a fine old stone house which, though remodeled and added to by 
later owners, gives evidence of the age accredited to a portion of the walls. 
It was the eastern portion of this building, including the one-story structure 
and part of the main house, that was the home of Squire Boone, the father 
of the intrepid Kentucky pioneer, Daniel Boone, until 1730. While much

has been written in reference to the birth-place and time of birth of Daniel 
Boone, there is no doubt of the fact that his father and mother camie to this 
farm imreiediately after their marriage at Gwynedd Meeting House, in 
Montgomery Co., seventh month, 23rd. 1720, and that at least three of 
Daniel Boone’s brothers and sisters were born here. While Squire Boone 
did not become the owner of the property until Dec. 3, 1728, it is believed 
that he resided on the farm, as the deed recorded at Doylesville, in Deed 
Book No. 23, page 175, states that on Dec. 3, 1728, Thomas Shute and wife 
of Phila. and Heronimous Hass of Perkiomen conveyed to Squire Boone of 
New Britain Township, weaver, 147 acres of land in New Britain township 
described as follows: Beginning at the corner of land reputed to be Abel 
Morgan’s, thence extending northeast 128 perches; southeast by Philip 
Sitsler, 184 perches; southwest by Andrew Hamilton’s land 128 perches; 
northwest by said Abel Morgan’s land 184 perches to place of beginning. 
This tract is located about three-quarters of a mile west of the present 
village of Chalfont, then known as Butler’s Mill, aud is intersected by the 
Neshaminy Creek, which the building faces, and the Doylestown branch of 
the Philadelphia and Reading Railwa}'. The old road from Butler’s Mill, 
now Chalfont, to the Bethlehem road at Line Lexington, crosses the north 
corner of the farm near the buildings. Another public road, intersecting the 
other road at the buildings, extends southeasterly through the center of the 
farm to the old road originally known as The road from Butler’s Mills to 
North Wales,’ now the upper State Road. It was on this farm that Squire 
Boone resided until he moved to Oley township in Berks Co., having obtained 
a grant of 250 acres of land which was surveyed to him in Dec. 1730. * * * 

The old Boone homestead in New Britain is now owned by a Philadelphian 
and occupied by Edward Berry.” 

The above article assumes but does not prove that Squire Boone 
resided on this property prior to his purchase of it in 1728. A history 
of Bucks Co. states that in 1728 Squire Boone purchased 140 acres in 
New Britain township of Thomas Shute of Philadelphia.* (“History of 
Bucks Co., Pa.” by W. W. H. Davis, Pub. at Doylestown, Pa.) 

We are certain, however, that Squire and his family returned to 
Berks Co. (then Phila. Co.), and in 1730 settled on a farm in Oley town¬ 
ship, Philadelphia Co. (now Exeter twp., Berks Co.) not far from the 
homestead of his father George Boone III, both being only a few miles 
from the present city of Reading. This property Squire Boone bought 
from Ralph Asheton of the city of Philadelphia, the twentieth day of 
November, 1730. (c) Nine of their children were born on this farm, the 
first three having been born previous to the purchase of the property. 
A plain two-story house of stone now stands on the site of the original 
farmhouse, replacing the first log structure. It is said that the stone 
foundation and cellar belonged to the log house first built by Squire Boone. 
Perhaps the most authoritative description of this property can be had 
from the following letter, a copy of which may be seen in the library 
of the Historical Society of Berks Co. at Reading. It was written by 


*The property is now owned by Mr. Hilburn Schloo, Doylestown, Pa.

Mr. Andrew Shaaber, at that time librarian and secretary of the Society, 
to the Pennsylvania Society, 249 West 13th St., New York, in reply to 
an inquiry concerning the Boone birthplace. 

‘‘Replying to yours of Nov. 13, 1915, concerning birthplace of Daniel 
Boone.—Daniel Boone, son of Squire Boone (Squire being his given name), 
was born in that part of Philadelphia County, Penn., which in 1752 as 
Exeter township, became a part of the newly formed county of Berks. The 
birthplace of Daniel Boone never was in Bucks Co. ‘Squire Boone of the 
County of Philadelphia, yeoman^ on Nov. 19th and 20th, 1730, bought 250 
acres, part of Ralph Asheton’s tract of 500 acres, built on it and occupied 
it. 

“This 500 acre tract had been granted by William Penn, Aug. 14th and 
15th, 1682, to John Millington of Shrewsbury, England. The tract soon 
passed to ‘Ralph Asheton, Gentleman, of the City of Philadelphia^ and was 
until 1741, a part of Oley township, Phila. Co. 

“In 1741 Squire Boone was one of a number of petitioners for the forma¬ 
tion of a new township to be taken from Oley, and to be named Exeter. The 
new township was erected Dec. 7, 1741. 

“When Squire Boone was about moving to North Carolina, he learned 
that at the purchase in 1730 a certain legal confirmation of sale had been 
omitted. This was rectified April 10, 1750, and on the next day he sold to 
William Maugridge ‘a certain Messuage or Tenement and tract of land 
containing 158 3-4 acres.’ This was part of Boone’s 250 acres. 

“Daniel Boone’s birthplace is nearly half a mile away from the public 
road. The nearest towns to it are Baumstown, in former days called Exeter 
town, and Stonersville, both small towns and each more than a mile away. 

“Moses Boone, aged 84, and perhaps the oldest living member of the 
Boone family, has always lived near the Squire Boone place, and has always 
been told that it was the birthplace of Daniel. The Lee family, from as early, 
as the birth of Daniel Boone, have been neighbors and close friends of the 
Boones. Some were born in the same old house of those yet living, and all 
have known the house as Daniel Boone’s birthplace. 

“Bucks County, one of the three original counties of Pennsylvania, is 
seventy years older than Berks. Because of this and because of the sim¬ 
ilarity of names, Exeter township is sometimes mistakenly spoken of as being 
Bucks County.” 

(Signed) ANDREW SHAABER 

Mr. Shaaber gives a further description of the place in a diary entry 
dated Oct. 17, 1912. (This paper may be seen in the library of the 
Historical Society of Berks Co.) 

“Visited the birthplace of Daniel Boone in Exeter township 1 1-2 miles 
from Baumstown. Moses Boone, aged 80 years, says he was at the place 
with his father when a boy and was told that the original house in which 
Daniel was born was a good sized log building that stood over the 
spring, on the same foundation walls on which now stands the stone house 
with date 1779. While the log house was yet in use, the stone extension to 
the right was built. The date stone which was in this stone building was 
either taken out, or was plastered over, so I was not able to get the date of 
its erection. The old log house after standing many years began to decay 
and grow weak. The arch over the spring was broken by heavy timbers

falling upon it, perhaps when the house was being taken down in 1778, or 
perhaps before that time. In 1779 the log house was replaced by the stone 
extension at the left and with date 1779. The foundation walls of the log 
house were not removed. The walls were sound, as they are to this day, and 
the 1779 end of the house stands on the same cellar walls that the old log 
house stood on.’’ (Note: —The Moses Boone mentioned here was a son of 
Judah Boone, the son of Moses Boone, son of James Boone, brother of 
Squire.) 

In possession of the Berks County Historical Society is the original 
indenture of a deed of Sarah Drury to Henry Feree in 1768, conveying 
this same property, and showing that Sarah Drury was an heir-at-law 
of William Maugridge and restating his purchase from Squire and Sarah 
Boone, and so on back to the William Penn grant. 

A rather detailed account of this property has been given here be¬ 
cause it was the birthplace not only of Daniel Boone, but of his brothers 
George and Squire Boone, who were ancestors of so many members of 
the family who are interested in this history. When the writer visited 
the place in 1917, it was found to be in a deplorable condition. It is 
to be hoped that there will some day be inaugurated a movement to 
have the place restored and preserved as a tribute to Daniel Boone’s 
memory. 

Very little is known of Squire Boone’s personal life in Pennsylvania. 
His standing in the Friends Society was good, as he was in 1736, a trustee 
of Oley Meeting, and on 10 mo. 27, 1739, made an overseer, (e) From 
the fact that so little mention of him is found in the history of the 
community, and the fact that he emigrated to North Carolina as a man 
of apparently little means, it is judged that he was the least prosperous 
of all the Boone brothers. After the marriage of his daughter Sarah to 
John Wilcox, who was not a member of the Friends Society, Squire was 
reprimanded by the Meeting, and his explanation appears recorded in 
the Minutes of Exeter Meeting, Book A, page 33, as follows:— 

“6-26-1742. Squire Boone declareth he did not contenance or consent 
to the Marriage but confesseth himself in fault in keeping them in his house 
after their keeping company but that he was in a great streight in not know¬ 
ing what to do, and hopeth to be more careful for the future.” 

Before many more of his children were married, however, Squire 
and his family had removed themselves to North Carolina, where the 
course of true love was less hampered by the watchful eye of the Friends 
Meeting. There is little doubt that this was only another instance of a 
removal due to religious intolerance in the home community. Ever 
seeking a higher and more satisfying religious expression, yet ever fleeing 
from the petty restrictions of church government, the Boones were merely 
following that primal instinct which has led men from the beginning of 
history, to move always onward into new lands where greater freedom 


(8)

of action and expression can be obtained. Hence we find that on April 
11, 1750, Squire Boone and wife Sarah conveyed their farm of 158 acres 
of land in Exeter Township to William Maugridge, “19 days before they 
set out for North Carolina, May 1, 1750.’’ (d) Although Sarah Boone 

had obtained a certificate from Exeter Meeting “to Friends in Virginia, 
Carolina and elsewhere” (e), there is no evidence that they united with 
any Quaker Meeting in North Carolina, and many of their children later 
became Baptists. 

No actual record of this long journey to the new land of promise 
has been left to us, but a graphic pen-picture of what it might have been 
like is given by Constance Lindsay Skinner in her “Pioneers of the Old 
Southwest” (Yale University Press, 1919):— 

“Southward through the Shenandoah goes the Boone caravan. The 
women and children usually sit in the wagons. The men march ahead or 
alongside, keeping a keen eye open for Indian or other enemy in the wild, 
their rifles under arm or over the shoulder. Squire Boone, who has done 
with Quakerdom and is leading all that he holds dear out to larger horizons, 
is ahead of the line, as v/e picture him, ready to meet first whatever danger 
may assail his tribe. He is a strong wiry man of rather small stature, with 
ruddy complexion, red hair and gray eyes. Somewhere in the line, together, 
we think, are the mother and son (Daniel) who have herded cattle and com¬ 
panioned each other through long months in the cabin on the frontier. We 
do not think of this woman as riding in the wagon, though she may have 
done so, but prefer to picture her, with her tall robust body, her black hair, 
and her black eyes—with the sudden Welsh snap in them—walking as 
sturdily as any of her sons.” 

There is some evidence that the Boones stopped for awhile in Vir¬ 
ginia (/), probably near Winchester. They may have stayed there two 
years or more, as their purchase of land in North Carolina was not made 
until December, 1753. 

In a “Sketch of Daniel Boone” by J. R. McCrary of Lexington, N. 
C., we find the following account:— 

The entire (Squire) Boone family moved from Pennsylvania to North 
Carolina May 1, 1750, and settled on the banks of the Yadkin River, in what 
was then Rowan but now Davidson County. This is established by both 
history and local tradition, by Roosevelt’s Winning of the West, Sheet^s 
History of the Liberty Baptist’s Association, and Jethro Rumple’s 
History of Rowan. A map in the year 1908, issued by the Depart¬ 
ment of the Interior of the United States Government, shows the 
travels of the principal explorers with Boone’s route covering the tradi¬ 
tional site in Boone township, Davidson County. At this early time Rowan 
County was a frontier country, the hills being covered with a great stretch 
of forest and teeming with deer, bear, and other game. * * The place where 
the Boone family lived is on a high hill overlooking the Yadkin River. 
Portions of their double log house, including about one-half of the rock 
chimney, were standipg until within the last twenty-five years. All these 
have been carried away by relic hunters except a few of the large flat hearth 
rock, which were found in cellars under the house by the Boone Association

in rebuilding the cabin. The Association also found several broken cups and 
dishes of the old time flowered ware. * * About one hundred yards from the 
home site is the Boone spring, and a hundred yards in the opposite direction, 
on the river bank, is what has been known for generations as Boone^s Cave 
or Devihs Den. * * Close by is Boone’s Ford, and across the river a short 
distance, in Davie County, once stood what was known as Boone’s Baptist 
Church. The records of the old church show that Boone’s family were members 
although Daniel himself never joined any church. Mr. Philip Sowers, the 
owner of the land which lies in Boone Township, and the owner of the Boone 
bottoms, has deeded to the Association the old home site of about five acres 
of land.” 

The Daniel Boone Memorial Association, of which Mr. J. R. Mc¬ 
Crary, writer of the above article, is the chairman, has recently erected 
on the site of the Boone homestead a replica of the original log cabin, 
for which citizens of Davidson County subscribed funds. Citizens of 
Rowan County (which was formed from Davidson Co. in 1822) have 
erected a handsome shaft of native Rowan granite, on which is placed 
a bronze tablet given by the Daughters of the American Revolution of 
Salisbury, N. C. Records show that Squire Boone, father of Daniel, 
bought property on the Yadkin River in Dec., 1753, six years later selling 
at least part of this tract to his son Daniel. There is no record of Squire 
Boone and his wife having located elsewhere in North Carolina, but whether 
their dwelling was near that of the son Daniel which is reproduced by 
the Association, or whether the elder couple occupied one side of this 
double log house and Daniel and his family the other side, is not known. 

In the Court House at Salisbury, Rowan County, N. C., is the 
original of an indenture between Daniel Boone of “Roan” Co., and 
Rebecca his wife, on the one part, and Aaron Van Cleve of the county 
and province of North Carolina on the other part, conveying for the sum 
of eighty pounds, six hundred and forty acres of land “Granted and sold 
unto the said Daniel Boone, by his father Squire Boone, bearing date 
the 12th of October, 1759, and conveyed to Squire Boone by deed of con¬ 
veyance from the Right Honorable John, Earl of Granville, bearing date 
December 29th in the Year of Our Lord, 1753.” Attached to this record 
is a note saying,—“Daniel Boone, Planter, bought this tract from his 
father for 50 pounds.” 

In 1759 there were severe Indian outbreaks along the frontier settle¬ 
ments of North Carolina, and during that time Squire Boone and his 
wife, with perhaps their younger children, were among the families that 
returned to Virginia or Maryland for a period, (g) Bogart tells us that 
“about 1759 Squire Boone and his wife, Daniel, his wife and their two 
sons, and several other families, * * * fled from the Indians to various 
parts of Virginia and Maryland. * * * * Squire Boone (Daniel’s father) 
went to Georgetown in the District of Columbia, where he lived for three 
years, and then returned to the Yadkin. **** Sometime in the spring of 





38 


W^t)e Poone jFamtlj* 


1762 Squire Boone and his wife returned to their home on the Yadkin, 
riding on horseback all the way from Maryland.” (k) 

Sometime at about this period, probably during their stay in Mary¬ 
land, Sarah (Morgan) Boone took her youngest son Squire back to Penn¬ 
sylvania on a visit. The entire journey was made on horseback, stopping 
to camp at night. It is not known how long Sarah remained, but she 
returned home without her son, whom she left in Pennsylvania as an 
apprentice to his cousin Samuel Boone (No. 58) to learn the gunsmith 
trade, (h) 

After that Squire Boone and his wife continued to live beside the 
Yadkin River until their deaths. They both lie buried in the old Joppa 
cemetery at Mocksville, Davie County, N. C., where their gravestones 
were standing until recently. Because of the depredation of souvenir- 
hunters, the stones have now been enclosed in a strong steel cage as a 
protection from further vandalism. 

The inscription on Squire Boone's headstone reads as follows:— 

Squire Boone departed this life they sixty-ninth year of his ageinthay 
year of our Lord 1765, Geneary Tha 2. 

On the headstone which is supposed to be that of Squire Boone's 
wife, only the first two letters of the word Sarah are legible. The in¬ 
scription reads as follows:— 

“Sa....Boone desowned this life 1777, aged 77 years.”

in Deed Book D, p. 143, of Fayette Co. Circuit Court, there is record of

siderable value. This seems to have been made at about the time of

The abstract of their marriage record reads:—

George of tbe same Co., at a Public Meeting. Witnesses George, Squire and 
Benjamin Boone; Thomas Evan; Edward Foulke; Edward Morgan; Daniel 
Meredith and 18 others. (6) 

In some way their courtship did not comply with the regulations of 
the Society of Friends, for on 26 July, 1720, in Gwynedd Meeting, her 
father, George Boone, openly acknowledged his fault in allowing John 
Webb to “keep company with his daughter in order to marry, contrary 
to ye established order.’’ (h) 

After their marriage John and Mary Webb probably settled in Exeter 
township, as their affairs continue to be recorded in Gwynedd and Exeter 
Meetings. It is said that they resided on the farm occupied in 1860 
by Isaac Herbine, then also included in the paternal estates, (c) 

In 1730, John and Mary Webb must have again offended the Meet¬ 
ing, for we find: 

“7-29-1730, John Webb and wife Mary produced acknowledgment of 
misconduct which was accepted.” (b) 

For ten years they kept within the straight and narrow path laid 
down by the Friends, but in 1740 John Webb was again called to account:

Sept., 1717 (or 10 Oct., N. S.). With his parents he lived for a short 
time at Abington, near Philadelphia, where he later returned to claim a 
bride. After, settling with his father in Oley twp., Philadelphia Co., 
(now Exeter, Berks Co.), he obtained a certificate from Gwynedd Meeting 
which was recorded in the minutes and reads:— 

‘7-27-1726, Benjamin Boone requests a certificate to Abington in order 
for marriage,” and 

“8-25-1726, Certificate signed for Benjamin Boone.” 

The marriage is recorded in the Abington Meeting Records as follows:— 

“8 mo. 3, 1726, Whereas Benjamin Boone and Ann Farmer having de¬ 
clared their intention of marriage with each other before two Monthly 
Meetings, Enquiry made by persons appointed and found clear from all 
others on ye acct. of marriage, are left to accomplish ye same orderly.” 

“9 mo. 28, 1726, Report was made by ye persons appointed to attend 
Benjamin Boone’s marriage and it was orderly performed.” 

When and where Benjamin married the second wife Susannah (sur¬ 
name unknown) has not been learned. It is probable that he married 
this time out of the Quaker fold, and possibly about 1736, as at this 
time he was in disfavor at Gwynedd Meeting. The Minutes give this 
item:— 

“2-27-1736, Benjamin Boone has not been spoken to since last Meeting.” 

The disfavor seems to have been dropped, as there is no further 
mention of it to be found in records. 

In 1735, Benjamin Boone, with Mordecai Lincoln and four other men, 
was appointed by the court of Philadelphia, to lay out one of the first 
roads in Exeter Township. Upon the establishment of Oley Township, 
in 1741, fifty families were not included. Among the petitioners against 
this were James, Benjamin, John and Squire Boone. He was among the 
representatives in the Assembly from Berks Co., 5 Oct., 1758. (6) 

Among the land warrants of Philadelphia Co., is found an entry of 
Benjamin Boone, for 300 acres, 8 Feb., 1734. What is now Berks Co., 
was then a part of Philadelphia Co., so his land was probably in the 
township of Exeter, near the other Boones. An indenture made 1 Nov., 
1768, describing the property of Squire Boone, brother of Benjamin, 
says that the tract ran from a corner of George Boone’s land 174 perches

northwest to a post; thence by Benjamin Boone^s land, etc. At his 
death he left quite an estate, according to an inventory made by his 
sons James and Samuel who were executors. It consisted of all sorts 
of movable property and two plantations, one in Amity and the home¬ 
stead in Exeter. 

The five children by Benjamin’s second wife, Susannah, were all bap¬ 
tized 6 Aug., 1753, at St. Gabriel’s Episcopal Church, Morlottan, Berks 
Co., from which record the birth dates below are taken.

In a paper entitled “The Boone Family” written by Dr. P. G. Bert- 
olett. May 25, 1860, we find the following biography of James Boone, 
Jr.:— 

“Especially prominent was James Boone, Jr., who evinced a decided 
taste for letters at an early age, and while yet of quite tender years proved 
himself quite an efficient mathematician At the age of ten years he 
was master of geometry and surveying. He was indeed quite an extra¬ 
ordinary character, considering the time he lived and the circumstances 
surrounding him. He resided for some time at Philadelphia, and while 
there often enjoyed the society of Dr. Franklin, David Rittenhouse and 
other men of learning. He soon won a reputation, especially in the 
higher branches of mathematics. 

At the present day some books are still extant that once formed part 
of his library, that still show traces of the man. These prove that he 




48 


?loonc jFantilp 


was no ordinary reader, but investigated everything on the spot', as these 
books show by extensive interlining on every blank space and flyleaves. 
His copy of Sir Isaac Newton’s work on astronomy is especially interesting 
in this regard; the margins of which are filled with closely written criti¬ 
cisms and calculations, proving not a few to be in error. No mean 
scholar to do that in those days. 

He taught school for some time, when his success as a teacher and his 
deserved reputation as a scholar, soon attracted the attention of such as 
took interest in the higher branches, and his school soon became crowded 
with pupils from home and abroad; even pupils from England availed 
themselves of his ability. In his early age he had indeed but few super¬ 
iors in this country and was one of the front rank of learning at his day. 
There is no knowing to what distinction he might have attained with a 
career so far of fairest promise, had not fate otherwise decreed. He died 
almost in the prime of life, Oct. 16, 1795. * * * He was interred in the 
Friends’ Burying-ground at Exeter.” 

He was a great admirer of Isaac Newton, and it is related that he went 
through Sir Isaac’s calculations, and discovered and noted a number of 
errors in his published works. The volumes are still extant with these 
notes and criticisms, (c)

Wilcoxson, and 7-30, 1777, was condemned by Exeter Meeting for being 
married “out” and by a priest. In an old Boone family record found in 
Reading, Pa., there are two entries concerning her and her family. One 
reads “1790 Sept. 13. Then William Wilcoxson and his family moved 
for North Carolina,” and the other “1797, Aug. 1. Then Rachel Wil¬ 
coxson came from North Carolina to see us, and her neighbor Elizabeth 
Freelan and her son Harry Freelan on the stage.” This is practically 
all that is known of this couple, although there is reason to suppose that 
their descendants were among the general Boone migration from North 
Carolina to Kentucky and thence to the Middle West.

9 . SAMUEL BOONE (son of George^), born about 1711 in Eng¬ 
land; died 6 Aug., 1745, at the age of about thirty-four years. 

Married 29 Oct., 1734, Elizabeth Cassel, daughter of Arnold and 
Susanna Cassel of Philadelphia. 

Their marriage is recorded in Philadelphia Meeting Records (a) as 
follows:— 

‘‘8-29, 1734, Boone, Samuel, son of Geo. of Oley twp. Philadelphia

Deborah, Mary and Sarah Cassel and 23 others.^’ 

Previous to this, according to Exeter Monthly Meeting Records, 
Samuel Boone was granted a certificate to Philadelphia 5-30, 1734, “in 
order for marriage.’’ Later, 5-29, 1735, Elizabeth Boone was received 
into Exeter Meeting by certificate from Philadelphia. 

After the death of Samuel Boone, his widow Elizabeth, married 
again to Joseph Yarnall, son of Francis and Hannah (Baker) Yarnall, 
7 mo. 29, 1748. The children of her second marriage are recorded in 
Exeter Records: Elizabeth, b. 1-30, 1750; Asenath, b. 1-25, 1752; and

Around them on every side lowered the clouds of the im¬

15. WILLIAM BOONE {George^] George^), born 18 Nov. (0. S.), or 
29 Nov. (N. S.), 1724; died at Frederick, Md., between 1769 and 1771. 

Married 26 Apr., 1748 (O. S.), Sarah Lincoln (b. abt. Apr. 1727; d. 
21 Apr., 1810, aged 83 yrs., 2 mo., and odd days), (a) daughter of Mor-

The marriage of William Boone and Sarah Lincoln was reported 
^‘orderly accomplished’’ on 26 Apr. (0. S.) or 6 May (N. S.), 1748. (a) 

Several times William Boone was elected to public office in Berks 
Co.; first in 1752 and again in 1754, he was made coroner; and in 1755 
and 1756 he was elected sheriff of the county. (5) 

In 1767, William Boone, wife Sarah and seven children removed to 
Fairfax Meeting (Va). They lived for a time in Frederick Co., Md., 
where William and his son Mordecai both died. Sarah (Lincoln) Boone, 
the widow, and the other six children returned to Exeter Meeting and 
were again received ‘‘from Fairfax Meeting, 10-30, 1776.” (a) 

A copy of the Will of William Boone is given below:

In the Minutes of the Exeter Meetings, we find that on 30 May, 
1750, Josiah Boone was condemned for a '‘disorderly’^ marriage, but the 
name of his wife is not mentioned. 

In the list of Removals in the Exeter Meeting Records is this entry:—

Married 1742, John Wilcox or Wilcoxson (d. 1782, near Bryant’s 
Station, Ky). 

The Boones were Quakers, and very evidently John Wilcox (Wil¬ 
coxson) was not, for we are told that Sarah was “condemned” for her 
marriage, (a) There is this entry:— 

“5-29, 1742, Sarah, daughter of Squire Boone, treated with for marrying 
out.” 

Another entry reads: (6) 

“5-29, 1742, Sarah Boone married out of Unity with Friends, (1st 
offense of this kind). Friends appointed to speak to the father, Squire 
Boone.” 

Squire Boone’s reply is given in his biography (See No. 3). 





jFiftl) Generation

Sarah and her husband migrated with the rest of Squire’s family 
to North Carolina (1750-1752) though very little is known of their life 
there. 

Sarah Wilcoxson with her husband later removed to Kentucky. Mrs. 
S. B. Davis of Cave City, Ky., who is a descendant of Daniel Wilcoxson, 
a son of John and Sarah Wilcoxson, writes as follows:— 

“In tracing my Faulkner-Craig kin I ran across a reminiscence 'twitten 
in 1898 by a lady when she was past 80 years old, in which she states what her 
grandmother told her regarding this attack and other incidents about Bryant’s 
Station. After telling what her grandmother had to say regarding the Girty 
attack on the fort she quotes her grandmother as saying, ‘Another incident, 
when plowing time came Daniel Wilcoxson and brother were in the fields, 
Daniel was plowing ajid his brother sitting on a log picking the flint of his 
gun (one would plow and the other watch for Indians), when an Indian 
slipped up and tomahawked the one on the log. Daniel ran, the Indian 
after him. The Indian was so near that when Daniel was on top of the fence 
the Indian was at the bottom. His mother. Aunt Sarah Wilcox (I don’t 
know why she called her Aunt, whether it was on account of relationship or 
her age.—Mrs. S. B. D.) was so excited she went out of the fort gate and 
would hollow. Run, Daniel, run, and let him in at the gate and then she 
followed, etc.’ ” 

“The Filson Club’s History of Bryant’s Station records the fact that 
Daniel Wilcoxson and another man were in the field at work when the other 
man (not stating his name) was killed and that Daniel Wilcoxson barely 
escaped with his life.” 


The above, taken in conjunction with Mrs. Davis’ traditions, es¬ 
tablishes the fact that John and Sarah Wilcoxson had one son, Daniel, 
and other family records prove there was a daughter, Rachael, who 
married William Bryant, an early Kentucky pioneer. Another child is 
also mentioned in the “Life of Daniel Boone”, by R. G. Thwaites, page 
66 :— 

“At the close of the French and Indian War there arrived in the Boone 
settlement a Scotch-Irishman named Benjamin Cutbirth, aged about twenty- 
three years. He was a man of good character and a fine hunter. Marrying 
Elizabeth Wilcoxen, a niece of Daniel Boone, he and Boone went on long 
hunts together, and attained that degree of comradeship which joint life in 
a wilderness camp is almost certain to produce.” 

It is said that Sarah (Boone) Wilcoxson (Wilcox) died at the home 
of her daughter, Elizabeth Cutbirth, in 1815, in Madison Co., *Ky.; 
also, that John Wilcoxson, her husband, was killed by Indians in 1782 
but these statements have not been confirmed. The death notice of 
Col. Daniel Boone, published in the “Rural Magazine,” Philadelphia, 
Pa., gives a list of the ages at which some of Daniel’s brothers and sis¬ 
ters died. That of Mrs. Wilcoxson (Wilcox) at the age of 91 would 
make her death in 1815.

22. SAMUEL BOONE {Squire^] George^), born 20 May (O. S.), or 31 
May (N. S.), 1728, in New Britain Township, Bucks Co., Pa.; died in 
Fayette Co., Ky., date unknown, (a) 

Married Sarah Day (d. abt. 1819, at the home of her son-in-law, 
Leonard H. Bradley, in Mo). (6) 

Samuel Boone was one of the first of Squire Boone’s children to 
marry, although it is not known whether the marriage occurred in Penn¬ 
sylvania or North Carolina. It is said Sarah (Day) Boone was a young 
Quakeress of education, who taught her young brother-in-law, Daniel Boone, 
to read and write, (c) 

In North Carolina Samuel Boone settled on the South Yadkin River, 
not far from Salisbury, then in Rowan Co. There is record of his entry for 
500 acres of land ‘‘adjoining Yadkin,” not dated, (d) “Samuel Boone 
lived on South Yadkin, called also. Little Yadkin, right between us and 
Salisbury”, is a statement found in an old paper, (d) 

During the Indian outbreaks of 1759, it became unsafe to remain in 
that locality, and Samuel Boone left his frontier home, on the western 
border of North Carolina, taking his family to one of the older and less peril¬ 
ous settlements of South Carolina, but to which one is not known. They 
were living there in 1760 when their son Squire was born (e), and may 
never have returned to North Carolina, as the same son, Squire, enlisted 
from the Camden District, on the Congaree River, S. C., in 1777. 

In the fall of 1779 Samuel Boone and his family went to Kentucky, 
and settled at Boone’s Station in Fayette Co., near the present village of 
Athens, (a)

Sarah (Day) Boone, wife of Samuel, lived after her husband’s death 
with her daughter and son-in-law, Mary and Leonard Bradley, in Missouri. 
It was to her that Daniel Boone wrote the well-known letter, in which he 
states his simple profession of faith. As a reproduction of this letter is 
given in Thwaite’s “Life of Daniel Boone,” only a transcription is given 
here 

October the 17th, 1816.

81 Samuel Boone, b. 21 Mar, 1758 on the Yadkin River, N. C.; was living at 

Winchester, Ky., 7 Apr. 1840, aged 82 yrs. Of his life previous to the time 
he entered the army, nothing is known. From his pension record on 
file in the Bureau of Pensions, Washington, D. C., we learn that in 1775 
he served three months as a substitute for his father in the Revolutionary 
Arniy, enlisting as a private from the Camden District on the Congaree 
River, S. C. Following this service he gave three months the next year 
(1776), and from that time up to the year 1783 he served in various 
capacities. For this service he made application for a pension on 29 
Sept., 1832, which pension was granted him. A copy of his application, 
which gives a complete record of his service and which is unusually 
descriptive of the average Revolutionary soldier’s experience, may be 
found in the Appendix, on page 635. 

82 Thomas Boone, d. Aug., 1782, killed in the battle of Blue Licks, (i) He 

had a grant of 1400 acres of land in Ky. After his death his brother 
Samuel assigned his share in this estate to Charles Yancy. (j) In one 
place is found record of a survey of 1400 acres of land for Thomas Boone. 
(k) He is also mentioned with his brothers Samuel and Levi, in Daniel 
Boone’s account book of surveying {1).

Except for his birth as recorded among the children of Squire Boone, 
practically all that is known about Jonathan is found in the following 
excerpt from Draper Manuscript, which is a statement of Enoch M. Boone 
{Squire^; Squire^; George^), a nephew of Daniel Boone, made in Aug. 1858. 

“Jonathan Boone,—came early to Kentucky,—remembers him at Squire 
Boone’s Station as early as 1783, and tended Squire Boone’s mill. After a 
few years settled on Green River and after living there several years then 
settled at the Big Falls of the Wabash (near Mt. Carmel, Wabash Co.) on 
the Illinois side, not more than fifteen miles, if that, above the mouth of the 
Wabash, where he built a mill. There he died about 1808—don’t know 
where his wife died, nor how old he was. Left several daughters, got mostly 
married on Green River; and left three sons, John, Joseph, and Daniel who 
settled in the lower country.” (a) ^

Foot-Note: —In a letter written to Mrs J. F. Cahill of San Antonio, Texas, by John B, Manly, 
Clerk of the Superior Court of South Carolina, 15 Dec. 1916, he says that there are two instru¬ 
ments from James Carter to Jonathan Boone conveying specific property; and another one to 
Mary Boone, wife of Jonathan Boone, from James Carter her father, conveying to her all personal 
property in Bristol Hall, which was then in the Parish of St. Lukes, Rowan Co., N. C. From an 
old North Carolina book comes also this statement, which locates one Tames Carter 
in the vicinity of the Boones,—“James Carter and Hugh Foster owned the land upon which 
Salisbury, N. C., was built about 1754.” This is the only thing to indicate that the Jonathan 
Boone whose wife was Mary Carter, belonged to this family. There were other Jonathan Boones 
in North Carolina at that period. There is also a tradition that Jonathan Boone married an 
Elizabeth Dagley, but no documentary proof of it has been found. It might have been a 
second marriage. 


24. ELIZABETH BOONE {Squire^; George^), born 5 Feb., 1732 (Old 
Time) or 16 Feb., 1732 (New Time) in Berks County, Pennsylvania; (a) 
died 25 Feb., 1825, in Kentucky. (Other dates given as 5 Feb., 1814 
& H5.) 

Married about 1750 on the Yadkin River in North Carolina to 
William Grant (b. 1726; d. 22 Jan., 1804, at the age of 78, in Fayette 
County, Ky.) 

William Grant was the son of a Scotch father, also William Grant, 
and an Irish mother, Margaret Venner. He was born and raised in the 
Scotch Highlands, imbibing a great love for his country and a desire for 
her independence from English sovereignty. Knowing this, it is not 
surprising to find him taking part in the Rebellion of 1745-46, in which 
it is said he served under Prince “Charlie.’^ Following the defeat of 
the Scottish army at the Battle of Culloden 16 April, 1746 (which sealed 
the fate of the house of Stuart and its supporters). Grant emigrated to 
America and located in the Yadkin country, where a great many others 
of the Pretender’s adherents settled. Here he met and married, about 
1750, Elizabeth Boone, and here too all their children with the exception 
of William (94) were born. At the time of their marriage a Dutchman 
said to Grant, ‘‘Well, Billy, Betsy will make you a good wife if you will 
take her down at the first loaf.” She was a beautiful, high-spirited 
woman, and the Dutchman thought she needed subduing. (5) 

Up to the time of the Indian outbreak in 1759, the Western por¬ 
tions and borders of the Carolinas had grown and been settled rapid¬ 
ly, but during this outbreak we find “the Bryans, and probably some

of the Boone connection, took refuge in Fort Dobbs. Samuel Boone and 
family removed to the old settlements in South Carolina, and old Squire 
Boone and wife (Sarah), his son Daniel Boone, and son-in-law William 
Grant, with their families, retired to Virginia and Maryland.’’ (b) It was 
while the Grants were living in Virginia, near where Washington, D. C., 
now stands, that their son William was born. Except for this short 
period they lived in North Carolina until the fall of 1779, when they 
moved to Kentucky, probably going out with Daniel Boone. A descrip¬ 
tion of this moving in Draper Mss. 22 C 16 says, “It was like an army 
coming out. There was no occasion to strike fire of night. They wo’d 
be camped J mile maybe, all along in a string. The road was worked 
into steps, thro’ the cane, where they co’dn’t go out of the regular track.” 
It is recorded in this same Mss. that Mrs. Grant and her daughter “came 
out” in the fall of 1779, but it is not stated which daughter this was. 
They came by way of Fort Boonesborough, where they stopped awhile. 
Then Grant joined the four Bryan brothers (William, Morgan, James 
and Joseph) and helped establish Bryan’s Station, five miles northeast 
of the present city of Lexington, which at that time was a small settle¬ 
ment enclosed within a stockade, (c) 

About 1783 William Grant (II) procured a pre-emption and settle¬ 
ment of 1400 acres on the Little Elkhorn River in Kentucky, but finally 
became discouraged and resolved to return to North Carolina. He sold 
400 acres of his land for an Indian pony worth about $40.00, which was 
stolen by Indians ten days afterwards with all his other horses. This 
loss precluded the idea of returning to North Carolina and the plan was 
abandoned. He remained on the Elkhorn. The log house which he built 
there was still standing as late as 1851, in its original state, the roof put 
on with wooden pins. This house was one of the preaching places of the 
Craigs (Baptist preachers), for although in her early years Elizabeth 
(Boone) Grant had been a strict “Friend” (Quaker), she and her husband 
soon after their marriage became members of the Baptist Church and 
never left it. Both Grant and his wife died there, he in 1804 at the age 
of 78, and she some years later. They are buried under an apple tree 
which he set out on the place when they first went there to live. This 
homestead descended to their son William (III), who together with his 
wife are buried there also, and as late as 1868 it was owned and occupied 
by a Grant descendant. 

Following is a copy of William Grant’s will, found in Fayette 
County (Kentucky) Will Book “C,” Page 349. 

“In the name of God Amen, I William Grant of the County of Fayette

26. MARY BOONE, {Squire^; George^), born 3 Nov., (0. S.) or 14 Nov. 
(N. S.) 1736 (a); died 1819, aged 83. (6) 

Married in Rowan Co., North Carolina, William Bryan (b. 1733; 
d. 7 May 1780), son of Morgan and Martha (Strode) Bryan, and uncle 
of Rebecca Bryan, who married Daniel Boone. (See the Bryan Family 
Sketch.) 

After several years residence in N. C. where all of their children 
were born, they moved to Kentucky, and settled at Bryan’s Station, which 
William and his brothers founded. This station was located on Elkhorn 
Creek, Fayette Co., near where the historic battle of Blue Licks took 
place in Aug., 1782. (c) 

The little settlement suffered many setbacks due to Indian raids, so 
Mrs. Bryan (Mary Boone) did not go to Kentucky to live until the fall of 
1779. {d (Sr e) It is quite possible that in the party of kindred and 
neighbors who settled there, were also William Bryant and his wife, 
Rachael Wilcoxson (Wilcox), daughter of John and Sarah (Boone) Wil- 
coxson (Wilcox), and this may be the reason why confusion has arisen 
regarding the name of the station, sometimes called ^‘Bryant’s.”

Here on 7 May, 1780, William Bryan died from wounds received 
during an encounter with Indians while hunting with a party on 1 May. 
(e) 

It is said that Mary (Boone) Bryan afterwards married Gen. Charles 
Smith, of Harrison Co., Ky., but some of her descendants deny there 
was a second marriage. (/) 

Concerning the Bryan migration it may be well to quote here from 
Draper Mss. 22 C 14, an interview with Daniel Bryan, son of William 
and Mary (Boone) Bryan, held about 1844 or ’45, by Rev. John D. Shane, 
who died in Cincinnati. Dr. Draper afterward bought Rev. Shane’s 
notes. 

p. 17. “My father William Bryan came out as far as Holston (1776) and there 
taking sick, turned back, but sent on the negroes, two men. (My father 
sent out two negroes with the company that settled first at Bryan’s Station 
to open the place). The station was named after himself (my father) and 
several of his brothers, but he was the principal. Each man had two acre 
lots. 

“Apart of the company that was out in 1776,including my father and 
myself and some others, now came on again in the spring of 1779, put up some 
cabins and houses and stokaded a little fort. My brother Samuel Bryan, 
Mr. Wm. Grant and Mr. Stephen Jones, brought their famihes out in the 
spring. 

“I came out in 1779 to make corn at Bryan’s in order to make corn for 
my father to move his family there in 1779 (April).* * The Station was com¬ 
menced in a short time. Cabins were built, but not more than a half dozen. 
I think there were only four, but some of them were double cabins. The 
space between was stokaded. The enclosure at first was only about thirty 
yards square, oblong east and west. In the fall it was enlarged to upwards 
of 100 yards, making near 200 yards in all, length, that fall and spring. But 
this was not all stokaded in until after Martin’s and Ruddle’s were taken in 
the fall of 1780.” 

p. 28. “In the fall of 1780, after the attack on Martin’s and Ruddle’s 
Stations, my mother returned from the troubles of Ky., to the troubles of 
N. C. The man who bought our place in North Carolina was from Virginia. 
He hadn’t paid for the place, and was anxious to give it up, that he might 
get rid of the difficulties with the British and Tories and return to Virginia. 
We traded to him the pack-horses that we had returned to Carolina on, for 
the truck and corn, and then we remained there in the old hou=!e until the 
fall of 1785. We then came back to Ky., and lived in Daniel Boone’s house 
on Marble Creek (the one he left to go a mile, etc.). Many others with my 
mother (had) dispersed, some to Va., and some to N. C. and perhaps all 
would have done so if they had possessed the means. The Station, however, 
recruited after a time, and so strengthened as to enable them to withstand 
the Big Siege.” 

A similar record was left by Geo. Bryan of Paris, Bourbon Co., 
Ky., born 15 Feb., 1758, son of Morgan Bryan, and a cousin of Daniel 
Bryan. This record is found in Draper' Mss. 22 C 16,

27. GEORGE BOONE {Squire'^] George^), born 2 Jan. (0. S.), or 13 
Jan. (N. S.), 1739; died 11 or 14 Nov., 1820. (a) 

Married about 1764, Ann or Nancy Linville (d. 28 Mar., 1814). 
George Boone was the eighth child, and the fifth son of Squire and 
Sarah (Morgan) Boone, and a younger brother of Daniel Boone. 

He married, it is thought about 1764, Ann, sometimes written Nancy, 
Linville, a daughter of William Linville and his wife, Ellender Bryan, 
a sister of Colonel Samuel Bryan, William and others. The Linvilles 
lived in the Boone and Bryan Settlements on the Yadkin. (For their 
further history see the articles on the Linville and Bryan Families.) 

George Boone was in the party which went out to bury the two 
Linvilles, William and his son John (1766). (5) 

When the Indians attacked Fort Boonesborough in 1777 and besieged 
it, a man was let out of the Fort in the night, who hastened on horse¬ 
back to North Carolina for aid. Immediately a company was raised, 
with John Holder, an active young man, as captain. George Boone was 
one of this company, but before they could get there the Indians had 
gone. (6) 

In 1779, George Boone visited Kentucky to see the country, and the 
next year moved out, stopping first a short time at Boonesborough, and 
then for a little while at Bryants Station. In 1780, he established 
Boone’s Station about one and one half or two miles north of where 
the present court house of Richmond stands. This was on what is now 
the turnpike from Richmond to Lexington. Then in 1781, he helped 
Major William Hoy establish Hoy’s Station, five or 6 miles south-west of 
Boonesborough. This was a beautiful tract of land, between Richmond 
and Boonesborough, but on no water course. (6)

In the party which went out in October, 1780 to bring in the body of 
Edward Boone were his brother George and his son William L. (c) 

When Daniel Boone went from Kentucky to the Virginia Legislature 
about 1788, George Boone sold him a horse with which he and his wife 
made the trip. 

George and his brothers, Jonathan and Samuel, were all Baptists. 

When still a young man, George had a white swelling on his leg 
which left him lame and unfit to go on campaigns, so he took no part 
in the Indian Wars, and none of his sons went out on any campaign. 
Several years before his death he had his lame leg taken off. (c) How¬ 
ever, he did service in defending forts wherever he was, and was appoint¬ 
ed by Congress to do Frontier work during the Revolution. In “Rev¬ 
olutionary Soldiers of Virginia” by Eckenrode, and Illinois Papers “D” 32, 
in the Virginia State Library, we find that he was a Revolutionary sol¬ 
dier. Following is a record of at least a part of his service. 

Virginia ‘ State Library, Richmond, Virginia 
Department of Archives and History. 

5 July, 1917. 

This certifies that in an original document in the Virginia State 
Library, which is “a Pay Role for Captain David Goss’ Company in 
actural service in Kentucky county under the Command of Col. John 
Bowman from Sept. 6 till Oct. 21, 1780” appears the name, George 
Boone. The roll shows that George Boone was a member of this com¬ 
pany for the specified time—38 days. 

H. R. Mcllwain. 

State Librarian. 

He and his wife continued to live at his Station until after his 
brother. Squire Boone, had moved to Shelby County, where they with some 
of their children soon followed. They were living in Shelby County in 
1811, for in Court Records of Madison County we find that, “George 
Boone and wife, Anna, on 10 November, 1811, then of and in Shelby 
County, conveyed to William Stone and James Stone, of Madison County, 
Ky., for the consideration of $3807.00, two hundred and seven acres of 
land in Madison County, Ky., on the right hand fork of Otter Creek, 
part of Joseph Phelps’ pre-emption and Settlement, adjoining the lands 
of William Ervine (Irvine), Thomas Grubbs,” etc. The deed was not 
acknowledged by Mrs. Ann (Linville) Boone until 3 March, 1812. 

George Boone and his wife both died in Shelby County, but their 
bodies were taken back and buried in Madison County in the old George 
Boone—Robert Harris graveyard, near the site of Boone’s Station, now 
Cross Plains, {d) Some of their children and grandchildren are buried 
there, as are Robert Harris and his wife, with some of their children and 
grand-children.

On his tombstone, in the old George Boone—Robert Harris grave¬ 
yard near Richmond, Ky., is this inscription: ‘‘George Boone, Sen. De¬ 
parted this life 11 or 14 November, 1820, aged 84.’’ (e) 

Ann or Nancy (Linville) Boone died 28 March,'1814, at about seventy 
years of age. The inscription on her tombstone in the same cemetery 
mentioned in the paragraph above reads, “In memory of Ann Boone, 
Wife of George Boone Sen., departed this life the 28th day of March, 
1814, the mother of children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, 
182.” (e) 

Samuel Boone said his father had six sons and six daughters, all of 
whom, with the exception of one son, lived to be grown. (/)

+ 122 William Boone, b. 22 Feb., 1768. 

123 George Boone, d. abt. 1810 {g). In the Madison Co. (Ky.) Court Re¬ 
cords, Deed Book “G”, page 389, is found this record: 

“20 Jan., 1810, George Boone and wife, Nancy (Ann), for Natural 
love and affection and one dollar, conveyed to their son, George 
Boone, Jr., 315 acres of land on Otter Creek in Madison Co., Ky., 
being the plantation whereon I (George Boone, Sr.) lately lived, which 
was conveyed to George Boone, Sr., by George Phelps.” 

George Boone, Jr., is said to have been killed by a horse, and his death 
must have occurred previous to 11 Nov., 1811. 

It is thought he never married, for in his will which is recorded in 
Shelby Co., Ky., we find no mention of wife or children. Instead he 
leaves “my tract of land lying in Madison County, Kentucky, on the 
waters of Otter Creek, containing three hundred and fifteen acres” 
to “my dearly beloved father and mother,” together with “my four 
negroes, namely, Lackin, David, Silvay and Keda, which he (his 
father) now has in his possession.” lindoubtedly this is the same 
land which his parents transferred to him on 20 Jan., 1810. To 
“my dearly loved Sister Mari ah Steel” were willed the 2 negro girls* 
Keda and Silvay, to be hers after the death of her parents. Some 
notes of Edward Boone (possibly his brother) w'ere given him under 
certain conditions. This will witnessed by Sally Simpson was signed 
on the 2nd day of October, 1810, and was proven by the oath of Sally 
Simpson^ in the Shelby Co., Court, 18th of Nov., 1811. 

This seems to prove conclusively that George Boone, Jr., died be¬ 
tween 2 Oct., 1810, and 18 Nov., 1811. 

Concerning his grave we have this quotation:— 

“A grave next to Mrs. Ann Boone (in the George Boone-Robert 
Harris Cemetery near Richmond, Ky. H. A. S.) with the headstone 
broken and the letters scaled off (1885); piece of scale had 1810 on it, 
and the footstone “G. B.”, which I take is George Boone Jun.” (e)

Married Martha Bryan (d. after 1793), daughter of Joseph and Alee 
Bryan, and a sister of Rebecca Bryan, who married Daniel Boone. (See 
the Bryan Family Sketch.) 

As a small boy of about ten, Edward was taken with his parents in 
their migration from Pennsylvania, to the Yadkin District of South Caro¬ 
lina, 1750-52, where it is very probable he was married, for we know 
that the Bryan family lived in this same neighborhood, and it was here 
his brother Daniel and Rebecca Bryan were married. It is thought too 
that his children were born in South Carolina. 

It is not known certainly when he moved to Kentucky, but it is very 
probable that it was in 1779, when Daniel Boone took out a large party, or 
perhaps even earlier. Of his life here, nothing is known though several 
accounts of his death have been left by his nephews. We shall quote 
here the one given by his grandson, John Scholl, son of Peter and Mary 






Jftftt) (generation 


71 


(Boone) Scholl. It coincides in practically all details with the accounts 
left by Edward’s nephews. 

“Daniel and Edward Boone (born 1744) went hunting, on Hinkston. 
Found a good grassy spot and stopped to let their horses graze. Edward 
Boone picked up some nuts and commenced cracking them on a stone in his 
lap, and watching the horses, while Daniel Boone said he would take a round 
and come back by the time the horses were through picking; and had scarcely 
gone when several guns cracked and he soon saw two or three Indians after him. 
He darted off into the cane and was followed by a dog. Finally to evade him 
stopped behind a tree and shot the dog as it approached. Indians came up 
and rolled over the defunct dog, looked at it regretfully and departed. Col. 
Boone saw the Indians but thought it wisest to remain quiet. Seven balls had 
been shot into Edward Boone and he must have been killed instantly.” (6) 

Martha (Bryan) Boone, who was probably only in her thirties when 
her husband was killed, did not re-marry. At one time she was living on 
Boone’s Creek, Fayette Co., Ky., as her grandson, John Scholl, remem¬ 
bers being taken as a small boy to visit her there, and thinks it was 
about 1795, but it may have been earlier than that as her will was signed 
12 May, 1793. 

Following is a copy of her will: 

“In the name of God Amen, I Martha Boone of Clarke County and State

29 . SQUIRE BOONE, JR. {Squire'^; George^), born 5 Oct., 1744; died 
Aug. 1815. 

Married 8 Aug., 1765, Jane VanCleve (b. 16 Oct., 1749; d. 10 Mar., 
1829). (a) 

Squire Boone, Jr., son of Squire, Sr., and Sarah (Morgan) Boone, was 
born “on Thursday about five o’clock in the morning” (a), in Philadelphia 
(now Berks) County, Pennsylvania, near the present city of Reading. 
When a small boy, four or five years old, he was taken with the family 
when they emigrated to near Winchester, Virginia, and a little later to 
North Carolina. Here they settled about a mile and a quarter from 
Holman’s (now Boone’s) Ford on the east side of the South Yadkin, in 
what was then Rowan, but is now Wilkes Co., and about eight miles 
from the present city of Wilkesboro. He developed a great fondness for 
a gun and desired to learn how to make them. So some ten years later when 
his mother made a visit back to Pennsylvania she took Squire, Jr. along with 




Jfift}) (generation 


73 


her. They rode horseback and camped out nights the whole journey. 
Squire was left as an apprentice to his cousin, Samuel Boone, to learn 
gunsmithing. He stayed five years, becoming an expert gunsmith, and 
‘‘neat workman, in stocking and ornamenting guns with brass and silver.” 
(6) A year or so before his apprenticeship was up, he or his parents pur¬ 
chased the balance of his time and he returned to North Carolina. 

In 1765, when he lacked a few weeks of being twenty-one years old, 
he was married to Jane VanCleve, who was born in New Jersey; a 
daughter of Aaron VanCleve of Low Dutch descent, from Holland. Her 
parents with seven sons and this daughter moved early to the Yadkin 
Country, where she and Squire Boone were married. She died at the 
home of her son, Enoch Morgan Boone, at the mouth of Otter Creek, Ky. 
By her grandchildren, she was called “Big Granny” to distinguish her 
from Jane (Hughes) Boone, whom they called “Little Granny.” 

On the wall of the Clerk’s office in Rowan Co., N. C., hangs the framed 
marriage bond of Squire Boone and Jane VanCleve, dated 11 July, 
1765, and witnessed by Squire Boone, John Johnson, and Sam Tate. 
In those days a bond guaranteeing the support of the wife was required. 
In this bond the name is spelled VanCleft, but in all other records it is 
VanCleve. (c) 

They lived at the Glades, perhaps a half mile north of Bear Creek, 
and between Bear Creek and the Yadkin, the latter being a beautiful 
clear stream, full of fine fish. (When Enoch Morgan Boone visited this 
locality in 1790, not a Boone was then living there.) Game was begin¬ 
ning to become scarce in this neighborhood, so Squire and Daniel wishing 
to find a better locality—and in those days that meant a newer, less 
settled place—took three companions and, toward the close of the summer 
of 1765, went down into Florida along the Altamaha River. Here they 
found high water, a wet country covered with greenbriar, and very little 
game. Lack of game meant going hungry, so becoming weary of it all, 
they went back home satisfied that Florida was not the sort of country 
they desired. Their intention had been to pass around the head of the 
Altamaha, going from there to the mouth of the St. Mary’s on the sea- 
coast, but it is thought by some they did not get that far. (d) 

It is thought Squire Boone accompanied his brother Daniel and 
William Hill to Kentucky in the fall of 1767. They crossed the Blue Ridge 
and Allegheny Mountains, the Holston and Clinch Rivers near their 
sources, and finally reached the head waters of the West Fork of the 
Big Sandy. Going on westward from here about 100 miles they went 
into what is now Floyd Co., Ky. After spending the winter here in 
trapping and hunting they returned in the spring to the Yadkin, (d) 

Squire Boone himself related that in the winter of 1768-69, John 
Finley, a pedlar and horse-trader and at that time rather old, came to 
the Yadkin settlement with a horse. He praised up Kentucky, telling of the 
plentifulness of game and buffalo, the Falls of the Ohio, where he said 






74 


®f)e Poone Jf amilp 


the water ran so swiftly as to carry ducks and geese over the Falls, 
killing them. These, he said, any one by going out in a canoe below 
the Falls could pick up in great abundance. This so fired the minds of 
Squire and Daniel that they decided to explore this wonderful country. 

Late in the fall of 1769, Squire and a companion, Alexander Neely, 
went in search of Daniel, who with five others had gone into the wilds 
of Kentucky, the first part of May, 1769. They found DanieLs camp,—the 
location of which is uncertain, but probably was on Station’s Camp 
Creek, in what is now Estill Co.,—soon after his and John Stewart’s 
seven-day captivity among the Indians. During this time the others 
had abandoned the camp and started home. Daniel, Squire, Stewart, 

and Neely then made camp near the mouth of the Red River. Soon 
after John Stewart failed to return from one of his hunting trips and 
Neely started home by himself, but was never again heard of. This 

left the two brothers alone in the wilderness. In after years Squire used 

to tell that the first time he visited Blue Licks in 1770, he saw vast num¬ 
bers of all kinds of animals, and herds of buffalo. The panthers and 
wolves would catch buffalo-calves and deer for food. What they left 

was eaten by the smaller animals, vultures, buzzards, ravens and bald eagles. 
These Licks were all salt licks, and the trails which led to them were 
worn three and four feet down into the ground, so great were the num¬ 
bers of animals going to them. 

Running short of ammunition and supplies. Squire, leaving Daniel abso¬ 
lutely alone, without bread, salt, or sugar, in this unexplored wilderness, on 
1 May, 1770, started back to North Carolina for supplies. Nearing the 
settlements he made camp and was roasting some meat when six or eight 
Indians suddenly appeared. They did not seem at all hostile, so he 
offered them some of his meat, of which they partook. They then 
proposed to trade a worthless old gun for Squire’s better one, and on 
his refusing, took it and his furs, telling him to leave. Going on to a 
settlement he raised a party and pursued the Indians for some distance, 
but gave up the chase and turned back. It was fortunate they turned 
back just when they did, for not far beyond, the Indians had lain in 
ambush in a very advantageous position, and probably would have wiped 
out Squire’s entire party. According to their agreement made at parting 
Squire met Daniel on the 27th of July, 1770, after an absence of three 
months, at the old camp in Kentucky, which, from fear of Indians, they 
soon abandoned. From here they went to the Cumberland River, ex¬ 
ploring that part of the country and naming streams, until March 1771. 
The next month (April) they returned to North Carolina to prepare to 
move to Kentucky. 

In the court house yard at Richmond, Ky. stands a rough boulder 
of limestone, on which is carved ‘T770 Squire Boone.” It is a relic 
of the winter hunt of 1769-1770, and is supposed to have been left as a signal 
of Squire’s return from North Carolina. It was found at Horse Cave, one 




jFiftt) Generation

and a half miles from Little Blue Lick, and was purchased by Madison 
Co. Besides the name and date, and immediately following the name is 
engraved “a younger brother of Daniel; built the first cabin in Kentucky; 
and solemnized the first marriage within the bounds of Kentucky.’’ 

Enoch Boone, a son of Squire’s, told that his father and Daniel 
Boone had the greatest of confidence in each other. Squire would take furs, 
go to North Carolina with them, and return to meet Daniel on the very 
day appointed. At one of these times Daniel went off on a hunting trip, 
returning on the appointed day to find no Indians had disturbed their 
camp, and stepped off to one side in the timber. Within an hour Squire 
appeared. 

At one time they had collected a fine lot of furs and pelts. Squire 
and a young hired man, named Andrew, packed them on four horses 
and were returning to the settlements with them, when Indians came up. 
The Indian leader snatched Squire’s gun and shot pouch, while the others 
took possession of the horses and their loads. The Indians then ordered 
them to go on. Andrew, who had slipped off a way, kept calling for 
Squire to come on, and finally he did go on after trying to regain his 
possessions by arguing with the Indians. This happened some 80 or 
100 miles toward Kentucky from the Greenbriar River (Va.). Squire with 
Andrew pushed on to the Greenbriar, raised a party and pursued the 
Indians, overtaking them at a stream. For some reason, probably high 
water, the Indians could not get the horses across, so Squire recovered 
three of them and his gun, after which the whites gave up the pursuit. 
They returned almost to the settlement, then scattered and went scouting. 
Squire Boone and David Hall were together and had gone into a deserted 
log cabin. Looking out they discovered two Indians, evidently chiefs 
from their fine dress, approaching. The Indians stopped a few paces 
away, when Squire and Hall firing through a crack killed both. The 
Indians had on a great many silver ornaments, half moons, arm bands, 
etc. Squire paid Hall $60.00 for his share of it, and later had the whole 
of it made into about a dozen silver cups. 

It is quite definitely established that Squire was not with Daniel 
and his party in 1773, when they were attacked in Powell’s Valley, but 
he and Michael Stoner were both members of the party of thirty under 
Daniel, who marked and cut out the ‘^Wilderness Trail,” variously known 
as the “Wilderness Road,” “Boone’s Trail,” and “Boone’s Trace.” Clear¬ 
ly marked traces of this trail were to be found 90 years later. 

Immediately after the building of Fort Boonesborough in the spring 
of 1775, Squire Boone built a cabin at Jerusha’s Grove, on Silver Creek, 
and commenced building a mill at “Boone’s Old Mill Site.” In October 
(1775) he sold the cabin to Joseph Benny, and the adjoining land to 
George Smith. 

Before Fort Boonesborough had been completed, the first Legislature 
of Transylvania assembled there, and both Squire and Daniel acted as 




76 


?Boone jFamilp 


delegates from Boonesborough, taking their seats on 25 May (1775). 
This was Squire’s hrst legislative experience. 

No record has been found of their moving to Kentucky, but by a com¬ 
parison of dates and history, he must have taken his family “out” with 
Daniel Boone’s party in the spring of 1776. On 30 April, 1917, at Hol¬ 
man’s Ford, near Salisbury (N. C.), was celebrated the 160th anniversary 
of the date the Boones left Berks Co., Pa., for their new home on the 
Yadkin, and the 141st, of the day they left there for their future home 
in Ky. This moving “out” took something more than a month to ac¬ 
complish, and about two months later, on 7 August (1776), Squire Boone, 
being an occasional preacher in the Calvanistic Baptist Church, per¬ 
formed the first marriage in Kentucky, at Ft. Boonesborough, between 
Samuel Henderson and Elizabeth Callaway. 

Early in 1777, he moved to Harrodsburg, but while he was in North 
Carolina settling up some business, Mrs. Boone was warned that a party of 
about thirty Indians were in the neighborhood, and that same evening 
moved her family and possessions back to the fort, after sundown. About 
this same time two men, McConnel and Ray, and Mrs. Boone were outside 
the fort, the two men shooting at a mark and Mrs. Boone picking up 
chips, when they were fired upon by Indians. Just as Mrs. Boone ran 
through the front gate several bullets struck it, but after firing several 
volleys at the fort the Indians withdrew. 

All through this period the Indians were very troublesome, 'and one 
time when out scouting southeast of the fort. Squire, who had stopped 
to examine some fresh moccasin tracks in a glade, was shot through the 
left side, breaking a rib in two places. 

In this same year (1777) there took place a battle called “The Corn 
Crib Affair.” A party. Squire among them, had gone out to get in 
their corn, and knowing that Indians were likely to be about had posted 
sentinels, who somehow failed to see the Indians creeping up. Suddenly, 
just as they had finished shelling the corn and were about to start back, 
they were fired upon. Squire and another man took shelter behind a 
bag of corn. The other man was killed, and an Indian rushed up to 
scalp him, when Squire ran him through with a small silver-hilted, three- 
edged sword which he carried. It was probably here that Squire re¬ 
ceived the wound on his forehead, which left a scar he carried all his 

life. The whites, having the corn crib and yard trees for protection, 

had the advantage over the Indians, who were exposed when running up 
and retreating, so the fight did not last long. Often in after life Squire 

told that this was the most satisfactory Indian fight he was ever in, that 

each side stood its ground and fought so well. Later on he lost his 
sword while crossing the Beargrass, and was never able to recover it. 

At the time Daniel escaped from his long captivity among the In¬ 
dians and returned to Ft. Boonesborough, Squire was living there. During 
the ten or fifteen days before the Indians appeared, everything that could 




77 


Jfiitif Generation 


be done in so short a time to strengthen the fort was pushed forward 
rapidly, new stockading was built, the fort enlarged to the east, and new 
bastions built on the southeast and southwest corners, the second stories 
being built up as high as a man's head, but without roofs from lack of 
time. Squire had made a wooden cannon, which he strapped with iron 
bands, and when this was fired later on during the siege it seemed to 
frighten the Indians greatly, but after a few times it was overcharged 
and burst. 

One morning the besiegers appeared in Indian file on the hillside 
south of the fort,—about 440 strong, under the leadership of Blackfish. 
The whites were told they had orders from the Commandant at Detroit 
to take the fort, but not to hurt any of the people, and that they 
had brought horses to convey the women and children to Detroit. The 
whites refused to surrender, so it was then agreed to make a treaty by 
which the Indians were to withdraw, and the white settlers were to 
abandon the fort within six weeks, leaving the country. Following this 
agreement the Indians sent some nicely dried buffalo tongues as presents 
to the women. 

On the second day the Indians were still quite friendly, and on 
meeting some of the women at the spring, where they had gone for water, 
called them ‘Tne squaws.” They sent word for them and the children 
not to be frightened as they were going to shoot some beeves, which 
they did without further asking. All this time the settlers were coaxing 
all the cattle and hogs inside the fort that they could get to come. Of 

those that would not come, the Indians killed what they wished. (A 

few days later one young cow came home with a “buffalo tug around 
her horns, some three feet dangling.” (e) Evidently she had been taken 
captive by the enemy, but had managed to escape, and capered about 
showing great joy over getting back home.) On this same second day, 

in order to make a showing of great strength, the women put on hats 

and coats, took guns and marched back and forth before the big gate 
which was open. 

On the third day the Indians cut down the peach trees to make an 
arbor and tables for the dinner and signing of the treaty. Two or three 
of the women ventured out to take knives, forks and plates. In the 
party, which went out from the fort to this council, were probably nine 
men—Squire and Daniel Boone, Col. Callaway, Maj. Smith, a Mr. Brad¬ 
ley, and others whose names are not known. The meal was finished, 
furniture taken back into the fort, and the peace pipe passed around to 
ratify the agreement for abandoning the fort. Following this Blackfish 
made a speech and then they began to shake hands, two or three Indians 
to the white man. Their intention apparently was to drag the whites into 
ditches or gullies out of range of the fort. A signal gun was fired by 
some Indian in the background, for no one was allowed to carry arms to 
the parley. The whites were expecting treachery and those in the fort 






78 


Poone jFamilj* 


were armed and ready. A scuffle ensued outside the fort, and Squire 
Boone when about fifteen paces from the council table was shot. The 
bullet grazed one shoulder, knocking off some of the knobs of his back¬ 
bone, and lodged in his other shoulder. In spite of his wound he got 
into the fort safely, and a little later Daniel Boone cut the bullet out. 
His wife dressed and cared for his wound, but he was unable to take 
part in the defense of the fort during the siege which immediately fol¬ 
lowed. However he had a broad-ax set by his bed to use in case the 
Indians succeeded in getting inside the fort. 

The flag at the top of a pole some 40 or 50 feet high became the first 
target for the Indians. Great was their rejoicing when it fell, the pole 
cut off just below the flag by their bullets. The men inside the fort 
soon had it raised again on another pole, and in their turn shouted loudly. 
At that, the Indians stopped their rejoicing, and did not try again to 
shoot it down. The siege lasted 11 days in all, two and a half in par¬ 
leying and the rest in fighting, after which the Indians withdrew. 

During this siege one of Squire’s favorite cows was shot through the 
udder with an arrow, but lived for ten years after that and was finally 
killed by the fall of a tree, in Shelby Co., Ky. 

Often Squire went out with hunters to kill and pack in meat at 
night. Probably early in the spring of 1779, he moved his family by 
boat from Boonesborough to Harrodsburg. When they arrived at the 
point of land nearest their destination, needing help to transfer his fam¬ 
ily and goods overland, he sent a hired man at dusk to the fort for aid. 
As the man did not return when he was expected. Squire Boone left his 
family alone, exposed as they were, and himself went for this help, re¬ 
turning about daylight with it. They then took the family and goods 
into Harrodsburg. The hired man was probably never heard of again. 
Once when living at Harrodsburg, whether this time or some other. 
Squire went outside the fort to get his horse and was shot and wounded 
by the Indians. 

It is thought that it was soon after this he moved his family, again 
by boat, down the Kentucky and Ohio Rivers to the Falls of the Ohio 
(Louisville). He intended to settle on his pre-emption of 1400 acres on 
Clear Fork of Brashear’s Creek, about six miles above the mouth of Bull 
Skin in Shelby Co., where he had raised corn as early as 1776. Probably 
because the Indians were troublesome, he postponed his settlement and 
instead bought some town lots in Louisville, on high ground near the 
mouth of Beargrass Creek, where he built a cabin. In that year he took 
Jonathan his oldest son, then about 13, to Kaskaskia (Ill.) to learn French. 
There the lad stayed four years. 

In the petition of 1779 to the Legislature of Va. for the establish¬ 
ment of the Town of Louisville, appears the name of Squire Boone, and 
again on a similar petition dated 1 May, 1780, are his and Jonathan 
Boone’s names. It is said that Squire Boone preached the first ser- 




jFiftf) (generation 


79 


mon ever delivered in Louisville by a preacher of any denomination, 
and was himself a Baptist. 

As soon as spring opened up in 1780, he moved out to Brashear 
Creek and established “Squire Boone’s Station,” sometimes called “Painted 
Stone,” near where Shelbyville now stands. The Indians harassed them 
more or less, but really did no great damage until April, 1781. Then 
while they were clearing up ground for the spring planting, the Indians 
attacked them, about sunrise one morning. One of the men in this work¬ 
ing party managed to get to the fort and give the alarm. Squire Boone, 
“in his shirt tail” (e), and about ten or twelve others caught up their 
guns and ran out towards the fields. About twenty Indians had hidden 
behind brushwood on each side of this path and fired on them, killing 
some and wounding others. Squire Boone, who was covering the retreat 
of Alexander Bryan, received two wounds, first in his right arm, then a 
second in his right side. He was so badly wounded no one thought he 
could live, but after several months suffering he finally recovered. How¬ 
ever his arm was so badly shattered, it was ever after an inch and a half 
shorter than the other and partly crippled. During the rest of his life 
splinters of bone would work out occasionally. It is told that afterwards 
Simon Girty, who had led this attack, used to laugh and boast about 
how “he had made Squire Boone’s white shirt fly.” (e) 

In 1780-’81 he acted as a justice and married many couples at the 
Station. 

The Indians were so troublesome all that season and the next, that 
in Sept., 1781, it was resolved to abandon the Station. All the families, 
with the exception of Squire Boone’s and the “widow Hinton’s”—there 
were not enough pack horses to take them too—started off on 14 Sept., 
1781, but were ambuscaded by the Indians when 21 miles away and still 
8 miles from Linn’s Station. No men were left at Squire Boone’s Station 
except Squire himself, still weak from his wounds, and his son Moses, a 
boy of about 12. After Floyd’s Defeat, which occurred on 15 Sept., the 
Indians followed them no further. (For more complete details of Boone’s 
and Floyd’s Defeats on 14 and 15 Sept., see the sketch of Isaiah Boone.) 
A day or so later about 300 men from the Falls and other settlements 
along the Beargrass, marched out, buried the dead, and went to the re¬ 
lief of Squire Boone’s Station. They reached there probably about the 
17th of Sept, and rescued the families of Squire Boone and Mrs. Hinton, 
together with the stock which had wandered back, and much of the 
plunder lost by the moving families. About two weeks later, one night 
after dark. Squire Boone went back on horseback to see if the Indians 
had molested his station and crops. Finding everything all right he started 
back. About midnight he reached Long Run, slid off his horse, and 
holding him by the bridle, lay down and slept until about daylight. On 
awakening he and his horse at the same time discovered three Indians, 
who had camped but a few rods away and were then getting up and 





80 


tCljE Jioone amilj* 


stirring up their fire. Boone knew if he shot he could certainly kill one 
of them, but his horse, which was afraid of a gun, would in that case 
get away. After debating it, he decided the better plan would be to 
mount and get away as quickly as possible. However he always re¬ 
gretted it as a lost opportunity. He spent the following winter at the 
Low Dutch Station, on the Beargrass about 3 miles from Linn’s and 
about 15 from the Falls of the Ohio. 

In 1781, in the House of Delegates from Jefferson Co., Va., appears 
the name of Squire Boone. 

Being so disabled he resolved to move to an older settlement, and in 
the spring of 1781 went to Harrodsburg, where he stayed that season. 

While thus disabled from wounds received in these various Indian 
encounters he was elected as a Representative to the Va. State Legislature 
from Jefferson Co. Here he made a plea that help be given the frontier 
defenders. His plain hunting clothes, backwoods manners and earnest¬ 
ness, coupled with his own poor, broken-up body, touched the hearts of 
his fellow legislators and made an appeal not to be resisted. To the day 
of his death he cherished the memory of the cordial reception given him 
by the other legislators and the citizens of Richmond (Va). One of his 
nephews, Daniel Bryan, son of William and Mary (Boone) Bryan, says, 
‘‘One night as we lay out together (on some hunt or campaign) I asked 
Squire Boone to give me a history of his life. He replied that he had 
been so honored that he had been a member of the legislature and invited 
to dine with the Governor (Va.); and that he had been so poor he had 
been obliged to steal hominy from a negro. These were the extremes of 
his life.” (e) 

The winter of 1782-’83 he lived five or six miles northeast of Harrod’s 
Station on a place he had bought from Col. John Bowman, on a “run” 
thought to be Cane Run. Sometime in 1783 he went to Virginia on busi¬ 
ness and when he returned, in the fall of that year, brought back with him 
several families, that of his cousin Samuel Boone among them. (This was 
the cousin from whom he learned gunsmithing.) With a number of them 
he started to re-establish his old station on Brashear’s Creek, for he loved 
that part of the country and longed to go back there. While moving 
they were overtaken by a heavy snow storm and cold spell on Salt River, 
and had to camp there for some time. They finally reached the old 
station site in the dead of winter, to find all the buildings burned to the 
ground. A station at that time consisted of a few rude cabins with 
stockades between, and generally arranged in a hollow square. 

That year Linn’s was still the nearest settlement, but in 1784-’85 
several new ones were built—Samuel Wells’ Station, 3 miles west; James 
Hoagland’s, 8 miles northeast; Daniel Ketchum’s on an upper branch 
of Brashear’s Creek; Maj. Aquilla Whittaker’s, 4 miles below; and several 
others.

In 1784 Squire Boone built a grist and sawmill at his station, and 
in Dec. of that year was a member of the First Kentucky Convention, 
going as a delegate from Lincoln Co. 

The Indians still proved troublesome, but they lived on here until 
1786. Then because of losses from land claims, he was forced to sell 
his station at a sacrifice and bought Wells’ station, where he moved early 
in that year. Later on his son Enoch came into possession of this station. 

About this time Squire was sent as a delegate from Ky. to the Va. 
Legislature, which ratified the present Constitution of the United States. 

Becoming discouraged because of losses and land disputes he decided to 
leave Kentucky, and in 1787 with his son Isaiah, his cousin Samuel Boone, 
and several others went by boat to *Chickasaw Bluffs, intending to make 
a settlement. They landed and unloaded the boats, but being warned 
by a friendly Chickasaw that it was unsafe to try to settle here because 
of the Creeks, Squire reloaded and went on down to New Orleans, where 
he took Spanish protection, set up a shop, and worked at his trade for 
three years. 

On leaving New Orleans his property was confiscated, and he trav¬ 
elled back alone overland, with little save his gun, having sent Isaiah on 
ahead some time before. He arrived in Kentucky in 1790. Still dissatisfied 
and in poor health, he decided to go south. After finding homes for his 
three eldest sons and his daughter. Squire with his wife and youngest 
son, Enoch, started out with a team of three horses, a wagon, and $200 
in money. They went by way of Crab Orchard, thro’ Cumberland Gap 
down to the Yadkin, where they got a year’s supply of provisions; then 
down thro’ South Carolina and Georgia to St. Simon’s Island in Florida. 
(For more details of this trip, see the sketch of Enoch Boone.) Here 
they lived until the summer of 1792, doing well in a financial way. At 
that time bits of bone were coming from the wounds in his back, so he 
decided to go north again. 

After selling off his property they sailed for Philadelphia, and went out 
to Berks County. Enoch, the son, returned to Kentucky that fall, but 
Squire and his wife stayed on until 1795, when they returned to their son 
Jonathan’s. Jonathan had married while they were at St. Simon’s and 
was living in Shelby County, Ky. 

When Daniel Boone moved his family to Missouri in the fall of 1799, 
part went by boat and part went overland with the cattle. ‘Tn the boat 
was Mrs, Boone (Daniel’s wife), Daniel Morgan Boone (son), then un¬ 
married, and Squire Boone (brother). Squire went out and spent the 

winter and perhaps a year or two.” (/) He liked the country so well 

he took Spanish protection, and received a grant of 700 acres of land a 

few miles from Daniel’s on the Quiver River. Here he began to build 

a stone house, but when it was about half finished two of his sons went

River northeast of Vicksburg, Miss.

out and persuaded him to go back to Kentucky. His family were tired 
of so much moving and had refused to go to Missouri, remaining in 
Shelby Co., Ky. 

He returned to Kentucky, and in 1802 “Squire Boone and wife 
Jane conveyed land on Silver Creek in Madison Co., Ky., to Basset 
Prather, Obediah Newman, and Polly Meriwether, deceased, of Jefferson 
Co., Ky." (g) 

By this time “land sharks’’ who “hunted up a better title to his 
land while he rested in fancied security,” had deprived him of all his 
holdings in Ky., and at one time, about 1804, he was in prison in Louis¬ 
ville for debts which he could not pay. Friends came to his rescue and 
secured his release, however, (h) 

Neither Daniel or Squire Boone were actually Revolutionary Sol¬ 
diers, but in 1813, in recognition of their services in border warfare during 
that period. Congress passed resolutions giving them the honor and stand¬ 
ing of a Revolutionary Soldier. (“Pioneer Families of Missouri,” by 
Bryan and Rose.) 

Discouraged and unhappy, in 1804 or ’06, Squire Boone with his sons 
Isaiah, Moses, Jonathan and Enoch, and the five sons of his nephew 
Samuel Boone, left Ky. for the last time and went to Indiana. There 
he established Boone settlement on Buck Creek in what is now Harrison 
Co., Ind., about twenty-five miles northwest of Louisville. He started 
in to accumulate new propertj^; built a small mill on his son Isaiah’s 
place, and supplied the neighborhood with meal for a long time. During 
his spare time he made guns, and cut stones out of the nearby hills to use 
in building himself a house. On one of these stones, which he intended 
to place over his front door, he cut the words, ‘‘The Traveler’s Rest,” 
indicating his truly hospitable nature. On another he carved— 

“My God my life hath much befriended. 

I’ll praise him till my days are ended.” 

On still another these words show his sentiments— 

“Liberty, property. Congress, America.” (i) 

Before his house was finished, he died in 1815 from dropsy. He 

had already made his own coffin, and with the help of his cousin, John 
_ • 

Boone, and H. W. Heth, a civil engineer, had prepared a vault in a 
natural cave near the summit of a cliffy bank, on the east side of Buck 
Creek, which commanded a beautiful view. This cave is about two or 
three miles north of Brandenburg, Ky., but on the Indiana side of the Ohio 
River. It was agreed among these three that they should all be buried 
here together, but because of opposition by the families of John Boone 
and Mr. Heth, they were buried elsewhere. So Squire Boone lies alone 
in this cave, placed there by his sons according to his own requests. 

He made Moses and Isaiah promise that on the third night after 
his death they would visit his tomb, and if it were possible for the dead

to communicate with the living, he would do so. The sons did as they 
had promised, but received no communication from their father’s spirit. 

Squire Boone was about five feet nine inches tall and well built. 
He had sandy hair, light blue eyes, with a rather florid complexion, and 
was always fond of hunting, though not so much so as his brother Daniel. 
In Draper Mss. 22 C 16, George Bryan of Paris, Ky., an own cousin of 
Mrs. Daniel Boone, says, “Have seen Squire Boone wear a scarlet vest 
trimmed with gold lace and gold (or gilted) buttons, and a macaroni hat 
and a coarse check shirt on. Was sometimes dressed as a British officer, 
and sometimes as a hunter. A curious oddity.” 

He and his family were never attacked by Indians when moving 
from one location to another, and he himself was never made a prisoner 
by them, though he had several narrow escapes. He never got over 
being hurt and mortified to think, that after helping so greatly in settling 
Kentucky and suffering so much in her defense, others who had done so 
little or nothing, should get all his lands.

In 1766 John Stewart was one of a party of four who made a trip 
westward, crossing over the Appalachian Mts., by some route which 
remains unknown, and finally reached the Mississippi River. 

About the first of March, 1769, a conference was held in Salisbury, N. C., 
to devise “ways and means” for making an expedition into Kentucky, and 
it is believed Stewart, John Findlay, and Daniel Boone, must all have 
been present. 

Soon afterwards, on May 1, 1769, a party consisting of Daniel Boone, 
John Stewart, who was a skilled woodsman, and three others, set out 
under the guidance of Findlay for Kentucky. They crossed the mountains at 
“Quasioto” (Cumberland) Gap, and made their first camp on a branch of 
the Red Lick Fork. Findlay led them to his old trading camp early in 
June, but found it had been burned to the ground. They spent the time 
hunting, trapping and exploring, until Dec. of that year (1769), when 
Stewart and Boone, who were out hunting together, were captured by 
a large band of Indians, who forced them to lead the way to their main 
camp. This the Indians robbed of everything of any value, but did 
leave them a little ammunition. Before leaving they warned the whites 
to leave this part of the country and stay away, as they claimed it for 
their hunting ground. Stewart and Boone, much mortified, followed 
them two days. Coming up to the Indian camp at night, Stewart and 
Boone slipped in, took two horses, and set off post haste. The Indians 
quickly discovered the loss of the horses and set out after them, soon 
overtaking them. They took the bell from one of the horses, .putting 
it around Boone’s neck, and making him dance and caper about. A few 
days later Boone and Stewart made their escape, and got back safely to 
their own camp, only to find it deserted, and their companions gone. 
They hurried on, soon overtaking the party, and found Squire Boone, Jr., 
who with Alexander Neely, had come out with supplies for them. The 
four, Stewart, Daniel and Squire Boone, Jr., and Neely, decided to stay 
longer, hunting and trapping, and made a permanent camp at the mouth 
of the Red River. There Stewart often went out on solitary hunts, and 
from one of these he never returned. Five years later when cutting out 
the “Wilderness Trail,” Boone and his companions discovered, near the 
old crossing at Rockcastle, the remains of Stewart iji a “standing hollow 
sycamore.” No one ever knew the secret of his death, (b) 

After Stewart’s death, Hannah was married again, her second hus¬ 
band being Richard Pennington, with whom she moved to Ky., and settled. 

Hannah had four children by her first marriage, with John Stewart, 
of whom nothing, not even their names, is known. 

Of the second marriage, there is but one of her children known; 
Daniel Pennington, at whose home in Monroe Co., Ky., she died.

42 . BENJAMIN BOONE {Benjamin^; George^), born 13 Aug., 1741; 
died 25 Sept., 1824, aged 83 years, 1 mo. 2 da. 

Married 1 Oct., 1771, Eve Lofter, of Exeter Twp., Berks Co., Pa. 
(d. prior to 1816.) 

In 1762, at his father’s death, he inherited a tract of land in Exeter 
Twp. The will of Benjamin Boone, Sr., reads, 'T give and bequeath to 
my son Benjamin Boone that part of my tract of land in Exeter called 
the Old Place, being the front of said tract.” It is not known whether 
the younger Benjamin lived on this property in Exeter or not, but if so 
he did not live here many years. He inherited also the Family Bible 
of his parents, Benjamin and Susanna Boone, but unfortunately this 
much treasured book was burned about 1850. When his father’s will 
was proven, Benjamin, who was the third executor, was in North Caro¬ 
lina, presumably on a visit with relatives. 

In the Records of St. Gabriel’s Church, Morlottan, Pa., is recorded 
the marriage of Benjamin and Eve Lofter, as follows: 

^‘1 Oct., 1771, Benjamin Boone and Eve Lofter. Exeter Twp., Berks 

Co.” 

It is said that the minister officiating was Rev. Alexander Murray, 
Episcopal Minister at Reading and Douglasville. 

(It seems that the family name of Lofter became changed in some 
manner to ^‘Leffel,” or possibly “Leffel” was the original spelling. At 
any rate there is a will of one Balzer Leffel, Amity Twp., Berks Co., 
dated 25 Apr., 1796, in which a bequest is left to a daughter Eve, wife 
of Benjamin Boone; also a will of a Catherine Bachtel, same township 
and county, leaving a bequest to her sister Eve, wife of Benjamin Boone, 
and to her father Balzer Leffel.) 

On 3 June, 1784, we find that Benjamin Boone purchased a homestead 
in Columbia Co., Pa., from Daniel Rees, (a) This property comprised 





Jfiftf) (Generation 


87 


295 acres in Fishing Creek Twp., Northumberlanti Co. (now Centre 
Twp., Columbia Co.), locateti eight miles above the mouth of Fishing 
Creek along the North Branch of the Susquehanna River. Here he con¬ 
ducted large fisheries every spring, employing many men. The log house 
of several rooms which he built there was standing and occupied in 1918, 
also a barn of unusual size, of the same material. Land in this same 
locality was later sold to Samuel Webb by Benjamin Boone, and wife 
Eve (6), date and amount of land not recorded. 

On 23 Oct., 1816, Benjamin Boone, Sr., widower, sold to Samuel 
Boone and Benjamin Boone, Jr., 307 acres in Center Twp. (homestead 
lands), for a consideration of 2,000 pounds. From this deed it is seen 
that his wife Eve must have died previous to that time, although neither 
the date of her birth nor the date of her death is known. 

Benjamin also owned lands near Heidley’s Church. This locality in 
which he owned property, and probably lived most of his life, is not far 
from Bloomsburg, Columbia Co., Pa. He was buried in Heidley’s or 
Hidley^s cemetery, now known as ^‘Briar Creek Union Cemetery.” Con¬ 
cerning this cemetery, comes some very interesting information from 
Miss Mary Josephine Roe, Gilbert, Ohio:— 

“ ‘Briar Creek Union Church Cemetery/ formerly known as ‘Hidley^s' 
or ‘Heidley^s/ in which a union of congregations were interested and still are, 
viz: Lutherans, Presbyterians, and German Reformed. Its history begins 
with the early settlement of the township. In 1798 Henry Heidley gave an 
acre of ground to the trustees of the Briar Creek Presbyterian Society, 
church probably built the next year. Among the pew hoMers, 1807, were 
Samuel Webb, Benjamin Boone, Josias McClure, among the list of some 
thirty names. There is no church record of burials.” 

After Benjamin’s death letters of Administration on his estate were 
issued to Thomas Webb. His sons Samuel and Benjamin had been 
given lands by deed, 23 Oct., 1816; his daughters do not seem to have 
been remembered, and but two are known.

Married Eleanor or Elinor Hughes (b. 1751; d. 2 May 1809), ‘^aged 
57 yr., 9 mo., 0 da.’’ (6), daughter of John Hughes and his second wife 
Martha Coles, who were married in 1748. (See the Foulke-Hughes Fam¬ 
ily). A year or more after their marriage Eleanor, who was a Friend, con¬ 
doned her ^^outgoings” in marriage, which is recorded in the Minutes of 
the Exeter Monthly Meeting 2-2, 1775; this being the date of her “con¬ 
doning,” no date for her marriage being given. 

Samuel and Eleanor settled in Northumberland Co. (now Columbia), 
Pa., probably near his brother Benjamin, although Samuel had inherited 
a part of his father’s homestead lands in Exeter Twp. (c). Descendants 
say that he located in 1785 just below Bloomsburg, Pa. Increase in 
population produced changes in the name of the Twp., in which Samuel 
Boone lived, but he did not change his place of residence after 1785. A 
deed dated 22 Mar., 1785, of “Evan Owen to Samuel Boone of Exeter 
Twp. Co. of Berks” for a tract of 600 acres at the mouth of Fishing Creek 
and the North Branch of the Susquehanna River, is recorded, (d) 

The homestead farm of Samuel Boone at the mouth of Fishing Creek 
is now the very garden-spot of all that section for fertility and beauty. 
It is situated at a broad point where the creek enters the Susquehanna, 
with the McClure farm adjoining it. It is not far from Bloomsburg. 
The brick house built there by either his son Samuel or a grandson 
Samuel, was still standing in 1918, and had been continuously occupied 
by descendants bearing the surname Boone until a short time before 
that, when it had been sold to settle an estate. It had been held in the 
family for nearly 135 years. 

Another deed dated 18 Nov., 1793, is from Samuel Boone and wife 
Eleanor, of Fishing Creek Twp., Northumberland Co., to Richard Willets 
of Catawissa Twp., for land in Catawissa Twp. (e) Besides these there 
are other deeds on record. 

The will of Samuel Boone, Bloom Twp., Northumberland Co., was 
signed 1 Mar., 1811; proven 23 Aug., 1811; and recorded in Book of 
Wills, Vol. II, page 151. Following is an abstract of this will: 

To the son James was given the plantation, 115 acres, on the Sus¬ 
quehanna River, in Bloom Twp., on which he was then (1811) living, 
and which adjoined the land of James McClure. Another son, Samuel, 
was to have the privilege of cutting logs for a barn from this land. In 
addition to this James was to have all the personal property which should 
fall to his share. 

To the son Samuel, mentioned in the paragraph above, was given the 
plantation, 104 acres, on Fishing Creek, occupied by Alex Comvelling (?), 
and an allowance of 6% for survey. At the time he was probably living 
on some of his father’s land, for he was given also “what is now in his 
possession,” and a share in the personal property. 




jFiftt) (Generation 


89 


To the youngest son, Benjamin, was given the plantation on which 
his father was living at the time of making his will (1811), “with crafts, 
ferry, and all pertaining thereto.’' To him was given also some land 
adjoining, 72 acres, bounded on the east by James’ portion, and on the 
north by Samuel’s. This 72 acres was east of Fishing Creek and north 
of the Susquehanna River. In addition he was given a “stove, and gun 
and appurtenances, and boards on the place, with a full share of my es¬ 
tate real and personal.” 

To the daughter Rachel was given a “mare, two cows, my bed, 
bureau, and buck-table and as much of the china and queensware as she 
may choose to keep, and one-fourth part of the Winter and Summer 
Grain my sons Samuel and James may raise for two years, to be delivered 
in the storehouse of Benjamin, but not to be demanded until after the 
year 1815.” 

To a grand-daughter, Peggy McClure, daughter of Josiah McClure, 
was given 50 pounds, “to be paid her by my sons James and Benjamin in 
equal parts and at the age of eighteen years. If she should die in her 
minority and without issue, same is to be paid to my daughters Susannah 
and Rachel in equal parts.” 

“Touching all the rest, residue and remainder of my estate real, 
personal, and of whatever nature I give and bequeath to my daughters 
Susannah and Rachel (except my wearing apparel to my sons Samuel 
and Benjamin) to be divided equally between them; property to be sold 
at public sale and money to be divided.” 

He appointed his son James Boone, his son-in-law James McClure, 
and Samuel Webb, Jr., all of Bloom Twp., as Executors. The witnesses 
were Joseph Menderhall (?), Isaac Kinney, and Richard Biggs. 

A codicil provided that ten acres should be sold off James’ portion 
for the benefit of the two daughters, Susannah and Rachel. The daugh¬ 
ters Martha and Sarah (McClure) had both died before their father’s 
death. 

Descendants of Samuel Boone say that he lost quite a large part 
of his lands through a bad title.

date of birth as 3rd of May). Baptized 6 Aug., 1753. 

Married 9 Nov. 1764, in Berks Co., Pa., Benjamin Tallman (b. 

9 Jan. 1745, in Berks Co., Pa.; d. 4 June, 1820, near Canal Winchester, 

Ohio), son of William and Anne (Lincoln) Tallman. (See sketch of 
Tallman Family.) 

Benjamin Tallman took the oath of Allegiance in Pennsylvania, 7 

Aug., 1777, and served an enlistment in the Pennsylvania Militia. (Penn¬ 

sylvania Archives, 3rd Series, Vol. 6, p. 314.) .In 1779 they removed to 
Virginia, and settled in Harrisonburg, Augusta Co. (later Rockingham 
Co.). There Benjamin Tallman joined De BesPs Troop of the First 
Partisan Legion under Col. Armand. (Pennsylvania Archives, 2nd 
Series, Vol. XI, pp. 140, 145, 146), and took part in the siege of York- 

town. His military service entitled him to bounty land, as shown by 

records at Richmond, Va., but it seems that he did not avail himself 
of his rights. About 1810 he and his wife removed to Ohio, accompanied 
by some of their married children, and settled near Canal Winchester 
in Franklin Co. The grandchildren of Dinah (Boone) Tallman remembered 
her as always clad in the gray garb of the Friends, with a small 
shoulder cape of the same. She and her husband are buried in a family 

plot on a farm then owned by their son William and located in Walnut 

Township, Pickaway Co., Ohio.

46 . ANNE BOONE (James^; George^), born 3 Apr. (O. S.), or 14 Apr. 
(N. S.), 1737 (6); died 4 Apr., 1807; buried in Friends’ Burying Ground 
in Exeter Twp. (a) 

Married 10 July, 1760, (6) Abraham Lincoln (b. 1736; d. 31 Jan., 
1806). (6) (See Sketch of Lincoln Family.) 

In an old family Bible in Reading, Pa., appear these two entries:—• 

“Anne Boone was born on the first day of the week, about five o’clock 
in the afternoon, on the 3rd of April, Old Style, A. D. 1737, or A. D. 1737, 
Apr. 14, New Style.” 

“Abraham Lincoln & Anne Boone were married on the fifth day of the 
week, on the 10th day of July, A. D. 1760. When his age was 23 yrs., 8 
months and 11 days. Her age 23 yrs., 2 months and 26 days. He being 
5 mo., 15 days and 22 hrs. older than she.” (c) 

In Exeter Meeting Records is the following:— 

“Anne Lincoln (Relict of Abraham Lincoln and daughter of James 
Boone), departed this life on the 4th day of the 4th m. A. D. 1807, aged 69 
yrs., 11 mo., 21d., 14 h., 10 m., and was interred at Exeter on the 6th, the 
2nd d. of the week.” 

Abraham Lincoln of Berks Co., the son of Mordecai and Mary Lincoln, 
was born in Amity Township, Philadelphia Co., subsequently Berks Co., Pa. 
His father, who died in May of that year, a few months before the birth of 
Abraham, was the ancestor of President Lincoln. Abraham was brought up 
on his father’s farm. He received a fair education, and became quite prominent 
in the affairs of his native county. For six years, from 1773 to 1779, he held 
the office of County Commissioner. He was an active patriot, and was appoint¬ 
ed one of the sub-lieutenants of the county, Mar. 21, 1777. He served in the 
General Assembly from 1782 to 1786, and was a delegate to the Pennsylvania 
Convention to ratify the Federal Constitution in 1787. He did not sign the 
ratification. Under the act of March 14, 1784, he was appointed one of the 
Commissioners of Fisheries. He was a member of the State Constitutional 
Convention of 1789-’90, and appears to have been a man of much influence in 
that body. He died at his residence in Exeter Township, in his seventieth year.

The Lincolns were Congregationalists and the Boones Quakers, consequent¬ 
ly Anne Boone’s marriage to Abraham Lincoln was “out of Meeting,” and con-

sidered a disorderly act. For this she was disciplined by the Exeter Monthly 
Meeting, and acknowledged her error to the Meeting on August 27, 1761. (a, 

e and f) 

In Volume II, page 158, of Berks County Wills, is record of the probate 
on Feb. 17, 1806, of the will of Abraham Lincoln of Exeter: ‘‘administered to 
Mordecai and Thomas, sons, the widow renouncing.” In the same volume, 
page 204, is record of the estate of “Anne Lincoln, widow, Exeter,” administered 
to her sons Mordecai and Thomas Lincoln, Feb. 25, 1808.

50 . JOHN BOONE {James^; George^), born 10 Nov. (0. S.), or 21 Nov. 
(N. S.), 1745; died 29 Mar., 1773. (b) 

Married Sophia Weidner (b. probably about 1748), daughter of Peter 
and Susanna Weidner. 

The following excerpt from records of Orphan's Court, Berks Co., Pa., 
concerns this family; 

“Orphan’s Court, 12 May, 1768. Petition of John Boone, Jr., and 
Sophia his wife (late Weidner). That Peter Weidner of Cumver (?) deceased, 
by his will devised to the said Sophia, his daughter, part of his dwelling 
house, and one moiety of a tract of land in Cumver. That said testator de¬ 
vised the rents, issues and profits to his wife Susanna, until Sophia attain 
the age of 21. The said Sophia is still under age. That Susanna (the 
widow) has married James Whitehead. That James Whitehead has com¬ 
mitted great waste and destruction to said land, etc., etc.” 

(The children of Peter Weidner were Sophia, Salome, and Mary, 
all of whom were said to be under 14 yr. of age on 18 Aug., 1764.) 

It is interesting to note that if Sophia was under 21 on 12 May 
1768, she must have been considerably under 18 when her first child was

born, and that her husband, John Boone, was under 20 — a very early 
marriage compared with others of that time in that community. 

After the death of John Boone, who was a tanner, in Mar., 1773, 
Sophia, his widow, petitioned the court on 6 Sept., 1773, to be allowed 
to sell the property, in Alsace, consisting of tenement, tan-yard, tan-shop, 
and 3 tracts of land comprising in all 94| acres, in order to pay the debts 
against the estate. The court ordered this done, (c) 

The following month, 19 Oct., 1773, at Morlottan, Pa., Sophia 
married a second time, John Biddle, and on 24 Feb., 1774, they reported 
to the court that they had sold ‘^all the properties of the said deceased^^ 
(John Boone), (d)

1794), and (2) Jane-(thought to be Jane Thomas, who d. 15 Oct., 

1834 aged 59 yr., 9 mo. 13 da.), (a) 

In the Minutes of Gwynedd Monthly Meeting, are these two items 
referring to Hannah Griffith Boone: 

‘TO-30, 1781. Women produced acknowledgment from Hannah 
Boone, late Griffith, for marriage by a priest, etc. Accepted and ordered to 
be read at Gwynedd Meeting.” 

“2-26, 1782. Women produce a certificate for Hannah Boone to Exeter, 
which is approved and signed.” 

In the “Removals” of the Exeter Records we find the following:— 

“7-27, 1774. Joshua Boone to Duck Creek Meeting.” 

“2-28, 1798. Joshua Boone from Duck Creek Meeting.” 

As the births of their children are recorded in the Exeter Monthly 
Meeting Records, Joshua and Hannah were probably forgiven by the 
Friends for having been married by a priest. 

After Hannah’s death, Joshua married within a short time, a second 
wife, who was without doubt Jane Thomas. The Exeter Records give:— 

“12-30, 1795. Jane Boone, daughter of Isaac Thomas, married bv a 
hireling minister.”

58. SAMUEL BOONE (Samuel*; George*), born 22 Mar., 1736, in Exe- 
ter Twp.; died about 1805 in Shelby Co., Ky. (a) 

Married 1st, 14 Oct., 1760, Rachael Coles (d. 17 Apr., 1763) (6), and 
2nd, 9 Dec., 1766, Jane Hughes (b. 22 Dec., 1745 [O. S.] or 2 Jan., 1746 
[N. S.]; d. in Ky.), daughter of Hannah (Boone) Hughes {George^; George^). 
(No. 63.) 

Samuel Boone became a gunsmith and lived in Pa. Later he moved 
to Maryland, and we find in one account that it was thought, ‘‘Squire 
Boone, Jr. (Daniel’s brother) was with Samuel Boone on the Potomac, 
when the rest of the family moved from Pa., to Yadkin.” (a) This 
would place Samuel “on the Potomac” as early as 1750, which is the 
year in which Squire Boone, Sr., began his migration that ended in the 
Yadkin Country in 1752. However, as Samuel was but 14 years of age 
in 1750, it is not at all likely that he would be established in a trade at 
any place at that date. It does not seem probable that he located at 
his new home on the Potomac River until after the death of his first 
wife and infant son in 1763; possibly not until after his second marriage, 
which is recorded in Trinity Episcopal Church of Reading, Pa. 

After the death of Rachael, his first wife, he married, about three 
years later, his cousin Jane Hughes, and it is this marriage which is 
recorded in the Trinity Church Records. Concerning this same marriage 
we find in the Exeter Records this notice:— 

“2-25, 1767. (25 Feb., 1767) Jane Hughes (now Boone), dr. of John 

Hughes, dec’d, was reprimanded for marrying out and to kin.” 

(For ancestry of Jane Hughes, see Hannah Boone, page 53, and 
the Foulke-Hughes Sketch.) 

It seems very much more probable it was following this second mar¬ 
riage, that Samuel established his gunsmith shop on the Potomac, and 
that his cousin Squire Boone, Jr. (Daniel’s brother) was not with 
him there. We know Squire, Jr., had been apprenticed to him about 
1759 or ’60, (see the Squire Boone, Jr., history, page 73, and reference (c)). 

We find that in 1776, (d) Samuel Boone had a gunsmith factory 
at Frederick, Md., where he manufactured guns and gunlocks, and during 
the Revolutionary War made gunlocks for the Continental Army. It is 
said he lost most of his money through this undertaking. A letter written 
by him at this time is preserved, and is recorded below: 

“Samuel Boone to Maryland Council of Safety. 

Gentlemen:— 

By orders of supervisors of the gun-lock factory in Frederickstown I 
have sent you seventy-nine locks, and have a quantity more all ready to put 
together. If you must have all the locks sent to you that is made in the 
factory, please to let me know by the bearer, George Bear. 

I am, gentlemen, your humble servant, 

SAMUEL BOONE. 

To the Council of Safety of Maryland.” (e)

Chart showing intermarriages between descendants 
of Samuel Boone, 2nd and wife Jane Hughes.

tCljc Poone jFamilp 


Family tradition says that Samuel Boone was quite well-to-do, but 
lost everything in his gun-lock factory at Frederick, being paid for his 
locks in Continental Script, while for his material and labor, he had to 
advance gold. 

“In 1782 or ’83”, says Enoch M. Boone, “Squire Boone (Daniel’s 
brother) went to Georgetown on Potomac, and on his return brought out 
old Samuel Boone, and family, who settled in Shelby Co. (Ky.)” (a) 

Besides the family of Samuel Boone, there were several others, and they 
all joined with Squire Boone in re-settling his station on Brashear Creek, (c) 

Samuel joined Squire in his new undertaking early in 1787, when 
they loaded up a boat with property and smith tools, going down 
the Ohio and Mississippi rivers to Chickasaw Bluffs, on the east bank 
of Miss. R. (in what is now northern Miss). Here they landed and started 
to make a new settlement, intending as soon as that was done to re¬ 
turn for their families. Being warned by a friendly Chickasaw that the 
Creeks (Indians), who were not friendly to the Whites, would cut 
them off, they reloaded their boat and Squire went on down to New 
Orleans, at that time Spanish territory; while Samuel remained nearly a year 
with the Chickasaws, working at his trade, (c) He then returned to Ky. 

It is known by descendants that Jane (Hughes) Boone died in Ky., 
at the home of one of her daughters, Hannah, wife of Moses Boone 
{Squire^; Squire"^; George^), where she was known as “Little Granny” to 
distinguish her from “Big Granny”, who was Jane (VanCleve) Boone, 
wife of Squire, Jr. {Squire'^; George^). 

Children:— 

(First Marriage) 

212 John Boone, b. 3 July, 1761; d. 13 May, 1763. His mother Rachael (Coles) 

Boone had died about a month before. (17 Apr., 1763.)

On 24 Dec., 1766, in the Orphan’s Court (Philadelphia, now Berks 
Co.) George Hughes petitioned the court to divide his father’s (John 
Hughes) estate in Exeter Township, as he (John Hughes) had died a 
short time before, leaving no will. The heirs were George Hughes, his 
sister, Jane (Hughes) Boone, and some younger half sisters, who were 
not Boone descendants. This estate consisted of about 190 acres, and 
was ordered divided according to the value, (c)

70 . ABIGAIL BOONE {William^; George*; Georgia), born-; died 

14 Mar., 1808. (a) 

Married 28 May, 1767, in Exeter Twp., Berks County, Pa., Adin 
Pancoast of Mansfield, New Jersey, (d. 12 Dec., 1822), (a) son of John 
and Mary Pancoast. 

She may have been the eldest of William Boone’s children, as she 
was married before her father and his family removed to Maryland, and 
did not accompany them. Her marriage is recorded as follows 

‘‘5-mo-28, 1767, Adin Pancoast of Mansfield tp. West New Jersey, son 
of John, dec’d and Mary, and Abigail Boone of Exeter tp. Berks Co., dr. of 
William and Saiah of said place. At Exeter Meeting. Witnesses:—Wm., 
Sarah and Mordecai Boone, John and Joseph Pancoast, Mordecai and Abra¬ 
ham Lincoln and 63 others.” (a) 

In 1797, Abigail Pancoast, with her four children, moved to Catawissa 
in what is now Columbia Co., her removal being recorded in Exeter Meet¬ 
ing, June 28, 1797. For some reason the removal of her husband, Adin 
Pancoast, is not recorded until the following year, Jan. 31, 1798. (6) 

In Catawissa Meeting Records we find she was received in Nov., 1797. 

“11-26, 1797, Abigail Pancoast produced a certificate from Exeter for 
herself and her children dated 6-28, 1787.” (c) 

In this record three children, William, Thomas and Hezekiah are 
named, while a fourth, Mary, was named only in the “removal” recorded 
in Exeter. Mary may have either married or died meanwhile. In 
Catawissa they were associated with the family of Abigail’s second cousin 
Samuel Boone, whose daughter married Hezekiah Pancoast. Abigail 
(Boone) Pancoast is mentioned in the wills of her father George Boone 
IV, and her uncle Jeremiah Boone.

72 . WILLIAM BOONE {William^; George'^; George^). 

Married about 1778, Susanna Parks (d. abt. 1837, aged abt. 65). 
In Exeter Records we find mention of Susanna being condemned for 
her marriage. 

“1-28, 1778, Susanna Boone (Dau. of Benjamin Parks) for marrying 
out and by a Priest.” 

(Benjamin Parks received in Exeter Meeting from Newark Meeting 
4-27, 1745). This was Susanna’s father. 

Although William himself was a Quaker, he had previously been 
disowned for having joined the militia, in Jan. 28, 1778, (a) hence Su¬ 
sanna was considered as having “married out” (of the Society of Friends). 
However, Susanna was retained as a member, for in 1779 she was given 
a letter of dismissal to a Maryland Meeting (a). William and his wife 
were founders and first settlers of Boonesboro, Maryland (6). The land 
upon which the town is situated and that all around it was granted to 
George and William Boone of Berks County, Pa., in about 1774. A 
little later William Boone went to his property in Maryland and resided 
there until his death in 1798 (5). Family tradition also, claims William 
and Susanna as founders of Boonesboro, Md., and a letter from a 
descendant says, “In the old Reformed Church Graveyard at Boonesboro

78. DANIEL WILCOXSON (WILCOX) (Sarah^ Boone; Squire^; George^), 
born 13 Mar., 1755, in Rowan County, North Carolina; died 16 June, 
1837, in Shelby County, Ky. (See Pension Record.) 

Married-Faulkner. 

In addition to the family tradition that Daniel Wilcoxson’s mother 
was the sister of Daniel Boone, we have the following proof of this fact, 
from outside sources: 

In Draper Manuscript, 22 C 16, p. 27 (Library of the Historical 
Society of Wisconsin), there is a statement made by George Bryan, son 
of Morgan Bryan, Jr., and nephew of William Bryan who married Mary 
Boone. He says, ^‘Israel Wilcox (a cousin of Daniel Wilcox who was a 
nephew of Daniel Boone) was out in the field at work and his cousin 
Daniel was on the fence watching for him. (Daniel Wilcox married a 
Faulkner, older sister to old Henry Wilson’s wife, of now Flat Rock. 
Israel Grant, Wm. Hogan and Daniel Wilcox got married October of 
that fall, and next old bawling Lockridge.) The Indians shot Israel off 
the fence, and chased Daniel till he got to the fence that ran between 
the fort and the cornfield to keep the calves out. As he crossed the fence 
they were so nigh they struck at him with their tomahawks but didn’t 
reach him. They were then in reach of the guns at the fort. His wife 
stood at the fort gate and called to him to ‘run, Dan’l, run.’ This was 
after I had gone to Boonesboro.” 

From the context it appears that this incident took place at Bryan’s 
Station in 1780. The account is rather ambiguous as to which of the 
cousins was on the fence, but that is of minor importance. Its chief 
value lies in the statement that Daniel Wilcox who married a Faulkner 
was a nephew of Daniel Boone, thus confirming the family tradition. 

See another version of this affair on page 57. 

In the Filson Club’s History of Bryant (Bryan) Station us also re¬ 
corded the fact that Daniel Wilcoxson and another man were in the field 
at work when the other man (not stating his name) was killed and Daniel 
Wilcoxson barely escaped with his life.

79. RACHEL WILCOXSON (WILCOX), (Sarah^ Boone; Squire^; George^), 
died in Callaway Co., Mo. 

Married William Bryant (b. 1739 in Wales; died Oct., 1834 aged 95 
years, in Boone Co., Mo). 

According to well-established tradition William Bryant of Bryant’s 
Station Ky., accompanied by a brother named Benjamin Bryant, came 
from Wales to the shores of the New World in 1764, when they were 
young men. Benjamin settled in Virginia, while William Bryant chose 
North Carolina, in the region of the Upper Yadkin River, for his home. 
In this region he lived for several years, married and acquired property, 
and here he became acquainted with the Boones, Bryans, Wilcoxes, 
Callaways and other pioneer families in that section. Sometime prior 
to 1775 he accompanied Daniel Boone into Kentucky as far as the North 
Fork of the Elkhorn Creek, where the two men made camp and hunted 
and explored several weeks before returning to the Yadkin in N. C. 
“Early in 1779 William Bryant led a party of emigrants into Kentucky, 
stopping at Boonesboro for supplies, and continuing to a point about five 
miles northeast of Lexington, where they erected and fortified a number 
of cabins, and the place was from that time forth known as Bryant’s 
Station.” He was a soldier in the Revolutionary Army, but his service 
was omitted in 1779, probably because of this migration. No doubt 
William Bryant’s wife Rachel accompanied him to Kentucky, for they 
settled at Bryant’s Station in Fayette Co., and later removed to what is 
now Estill Co., Ky. From there, in about 1816-20 they emigrated with 
their younger children to the new and promising land beyond the Miss¬ 
issippi, locating at Femme Osage, Mo., not far from the Boone settlement 
in Callaway Co. Here Rachel (Wilcox) Bryant died, and her husband 
removed to Boone Co., in 1821. 

William Bryant married a second time a young woman named Nancy 
Wood, by whom he had children, none of whom lived to maturity. He 
died in Boone Co., and is buried near the site of the vanished town of 
Stonesport. 

His will is recorded in Deed Record A. P. 292, Boone Co., Mo. 

Military Record of William Bryant. 

“He joined the Continental forces and seived for a time in the War of 
Independence. While serving as such, he was captured by the British and 
placed on board a prison ship in Charleston Harbor. One night he dropped 
silently into the waters of the harbor, swam ashore and returned to the

American lines in safety. During the Revolutionary struggle in Kentucky, 
he held the rank of Captain under Cols. Todd and Boone. The following is 
found in the Colonial Records copied from the records of soldiers who served 
in the Revolutionary War, in Philadelphia: ‘William Bryant, Private in 
Blounts Com.; date of Com. or enl. 26 Apr., 1778; period of service 2 1-4 
years, omitted in 1779.’ ”

“At the close of the French and Indian War there arrived in the Boone 
settlement a Scotch-Irishman named Benjamin Cutbirth, aged about twenty- 
three years. He was a man of good character and a fine hunter. Marrying 
Elizabeth Wilcoxen, a niece of Daniel Boone, he and Boone went on long 
hunts together, and attained that degree of comradeship which joint life 
in the wilderness camp is almost certain to produce.” (a) 

The Cutbirths lived in Madison Co., Ky.,‘ and it was here at the 
home of her daughter Elizabeth that Sarah (Boone) Wilcoxson (Wilcox) 
died in 1815.

86. SQUIRE BOONE (Samuel^; Squire^; George^)^ born 13 Oct., 1760, in 
South Carolina; died 28 June, 1817, in Todd Co., Ky. 

Married 1 Sept. 1784, in Fayette Co., Ky., Anna Grubbs (b. 23 June, 1776; 
died 26 Aug., 1843), daughter of William and Susanna (Hearne) Grubbs. 
(Marriage date is from Pension Record.) 

Squire Boone was born in South Carolina, whither his parents had 
moved to avoid the depredations of the Indians on the western borders 
of North Carolina, where they had formerly lived. There is no further 
record of Squire up to the time of his enlistment from the Camden 
District of South Carolina, on the Congaree River, in 1777. 

His Revolutionary record is as follows 

From the Department of the Interior, Bureau of Pensions, Washington, 
D. C., W. F. 8—372, Rev. War, Squire Boone. 

He enlisted June or July, 1777, 3 mo., as Sgt. under Capt. John Cook; 
Col. Robt. Goodwin, South Carolina. 

He enlisted June or July, 1779 for three months as Sgt. under Captains 
John McChord or Robert McGowan; Col. John Russell. 

From 1780 to 1783 he served in Kentucky under Captain William Hays,* 
and was frequently engaged against Indians in the defense of the frontier. 

He also served under General George Rogers Clark in his expeditions 
against the Piqua towns, and was seriously injured in the Battle of Blue 
Licks. The record also states that the pensioner was a son of Samuel Boone 
and a nephew of Daniel, and gives considerable data concerning his wife and 
children. 

In the fall of 1779 he moved with his father’s family to Kentucky, 
and settled at Bryan’s Station, (a) Here he continued to serve in front¬ 
ier Indian warfare until the time of his marriage. A biographical sketch 
of his son. Dr. Levi Day Boone of Chicago, says that the marriage of 
Squire and Anna Boone occurred under circumstances characteristic of 
that romantic period. Kentucky at that time consisted of only two 
counties, eastern and western, divided by the Kentucky River. As 
there was no magistrate in the western county to administer the marriage 


*Probably the son-in-law of Daniel Boone.

VOW, the couple crossed to the east bank of the river, and there, standing 
under the shade of a large tree, a magistrate pronounced them one. As 
the book in which this account appears was compiled during the lifetime 
of Dr. Levi Day Boone, and probably met with his approval, the above 
incident can be given slightly more credence than the average tradition. 

(c) 

Squire Boone became a Baptist preacher, having been baptized in that 
faith at Lower Howard’s Creek, Ky., sometime between 1785 and 1787. 
(6) He lived for a time at Lexington, where his son Levi was born in 
1808, and later removed to Todd County, near the present town of Elk- 
ton, where he located on a farm and built the home in which he lived 
until his death. He never fully recovered from the wound he received 
at the battle of Blue Licks, and it is said that the bullet he had received 
in the hip remained there during the rest of his life. 

Anna (Grubbs) Boone, the wife of Squire, went to Kentucky with her 
parents about 1775. (See Sketch of Grubbs Family.) She was a sister 
of Higgason Grubbs who was prominent in the early history of Madison 
Co., Ky. Her obituary was written by her son Higgason G. Boone, and 
reads, in part, as follows:— 

“Died in Todd Co., Ky., on Saturday the 26th day of August, 1843, Mrs. 
Anna Boone, in the 78th year of her age; in full hope of a glorious immortality, 
having lived the life of a consistent Christian for more than fifty years. In 
the early settlement of Kentucky she was married to Squire Boone, on the 
18th day of September, 1784, on the bank of Kentucky River at the mouth 
of Boone’s Creek, Fayette Co., Ky., and shortly after was baptised by 
Elder Redding or Crag (the minister is not certain which), and continued a 
consistent member of the Baptist Church until the day of her death. She 
was the mother of fifteen children, many of whom yet live, together with a 
numerous train of grandchildren.”—H. G. B., Elkton, Ky., Oct. 18, 1843.

91. JOHN GRANT (Elizabeth^ Boone; Squire^; George^), born 30 Jan. 
1754, in North Carolina; died 11 Nov., 1825, on the Licking River in 
Kentucky. 

Married Mary (Polly) Moseby, sister of Maj. Joseph Moseby of 
Yadkin (N. C.) and afterwards of Fayette Co., Ky. 

John Grant (known as Col. Grant) was living at Shallow Ford, N. 
C.,in 1779, when he joined his father and brothers, under Daniel Boone, 
in their move to Kentucky, where they stopped first for a while at Fort 
Boonesborough, then went on and helped establish Bryan's Station. After 
this^was built. Grant and Col. William Ellis (from Va.) went five miles 
farther on towards where Paris (Ky.) now stands, and set up Grant's 
Station. In 1780 this station was broken up by Col. Byrd with his Eng¬ 
lish forces, and Grant returned with his family to N. C. Here he entered 
the Revolutionary army for a while, but in the spring of 1782 he returned 
to Ky. and settled permanently, though at what place is not known. 
Eventually he located on the Licking River, where he set up salt works, 
and died many years later.

92. ISRAEL GRANT {Elizabeth^ Boone; Squire'^; George^), born 14 Dec., 
1756, in North Carolina; died October, 1796, in Scott Co., Ky. 

Married about July, 1780, in Ky., Susan Bryan, sister of Jonathan 
Bryan of St. Charles Co., Mo., and a daughter of James Bryan who was 
an uncle of Mrs. Daniel Boone. 

Israel Grant ‘^came out" from Shallow Ford (Yadkin), N. C., in the 
spring of 1779 with the Grant, Bryan, and Boone families. It is quite 
probable that he helped his father and the Bryans establish Bryan's 
Station, and being at the time unmarried he may have divided his time 
between Fort Boonesborough, Bryan's Station, and his brother John's 
station (Grant's). About July, 1780, he was married to Susan Bryan, who 
was one of the six children of James Bryan, all of whom after the death

®f)e poone Jfamrtp 


of their mother were taken by their ‘‘uncle” Daniel and “aunt” Rebecca 
Boone to be brought up. It was at the Boone home that Susan was 
married, possibly at Fort Boonesborough. 

Probably after his marriage Israel located at or near Fort Boones¬ 
borough, for we find that in October, 1780, he went with Daniel Boone 
in pursuit of the Indians that had killed Edward Boone. To Israel and 
his wife were born three children. 

Children:— 

(All born in Ky.) 

320 James Grant. Their father having died when the youngest child was 
quite small, James educated his brothers from the proceeds of their 
father’s farm. He was twice married, first to a Miss Easton, and then 
after her death to Sally Hunt He settled in Callaway Co., Mo., in 
1826, and became an influential citizen. For one term he represented 
his county in the State Legislature, and was also Judije of the County 
Court for a time. Later he moved from Callaway Co. to southwest 
Missouri and settled on the Neosho River. This was his home at the 
time of his death. Of his descendants nothing is known. 

+321 William Grant. 

322 Israel Boone Grant; thought to be the youngest son. At the age of 15 
he went to Mo. with his uncle Jonathan Bryan, and taught school for 
one year. Following this he returned to Ky., and began the study of 
medicine, but tiring of that he bound himself out for five years to a 
silversmith in Lexington, Ky. After learning this trade he went to 
St. Louis, where he followed his profession for five years more. At 
that time he paid a visit to his uncle, Jonathan Bryan, who persuaded 
him to give up silversmithing and go to farming. Jonathan went with 
him to Callaway Co. to help him pick out and enter a tract of farming 
land. This done Israel went back to Ky., and on the 28th of March, 
1820, was there married to Lettie Warren, taking her that same spring 
as a bride to Callaway Co. During his residence in Missouri he was 
several times elected County Judge, and for two terms was in the State 
Legislature. About Christmas 1835 he had gone to Fulton to collect 
some money, and as he returned was waylaid and killed by two of 
his negro slaves. Both negroes were hanged for this crime, and the 
skeleton of one, named Jacob, was in a Danville (Mo.) doctor’s office 
for years.

94. WILLIAM GRANT (III) {Elizabeth^ Boone; Squire^; George^), born 
10 Jan., 1761, in Virginia; died 20 Feb., 1814. 

Married Sally Moseby, sister of Maj. Joseph Moseby and of Mary 
Moseby who married John Grant, William’s brother. 

During the Indian outbreak of 1759, William’s parents, who at that 
time were living in the Yadkin Country (N. C.), went to live for a time 
in Virginia, near where Washington, D. C., now stands. It was while 
they were living there that William III was born. Before September 
1764 the family moved back to N. C. and settled again in the Yadkin 
Country near Shallow Ford. After living there several years William went 
with his parents in 1779 to Kentucky, and lived at Bryan’s Station near 
Fort Boonesborough. 

While out hunting with a party on the Elkhorn River about May 
20th, 1780, he was wounded in an attack the Indians made on the party. 
It is very probable he was one of the defenders of Bryan’s Station when 
it was besieged in August, 1782, by Simon Girty and his band, for at the 
battle of Blue Licks, which followed within a few days. Grant was under 
his uncle, Daniel Boone. At the ford of the Licking, he joined Maj. 
Netherland in checking the Indians. It was here that he saw an Indian 
tomahawking some of the exhausted men at the edge of the ford and shot 
him. While doing this he had left his horse, Keplar, untied, and when 
he went to get him found that he was gone. Going on a mile or two, he 




114 


®f)e Jioone Jfamilp 


overtook one of his friends who had caught Keplar. Mounting and going 
still farther, Grant came upon Capt. Wood from the south side of the 
Kentucky River, who was too fleshy and exhausted to mount his own 
horse. Grant got down to help Wood and a second time Keplar got 
away, but was again caught by the same man, and Grant this time es¬ 
caped safely. (Keplar lived to be 32 years old.) 

Grant went out on Clark’s campaign in 1782, and again on Logan’s 
in 1786. He used to tell his sons about this campaign. 

At some time during this period of his life he was married to Sally 
Moseby, who was one of fifteen children, seven boys and eight girls, who 
came from the Yadkin Country and settled in Fayette Co., Ky. Both 
Grant and his wife were Baptists in their religious beliefs. They lived, 
died and were buried at the Grant homestead on the Elkhorn, which 
came to William through his father, William Grant II.

Married Lydia Craig, daughter of Rev. Elijah Craig of Scott Co., Ky. 

Samuel Grant was killed by Indians on Grant’s Lick Creek in Ind¬ 
iana, at the same time that his brother Moses was. He was thought, by 
his nephew, Col. Samuel Moseby Grant, to have been a Captain under 
Col. Robert Johnson who led the expedition over the Ohio, which ended 
disastrously for Moses and Samuel Grant.

now St. Charles Co., Mo. (d) 

Married in March, 1775, at Blackmore’s Station on the Clinch river 
in Va., William Hays (d. 13 Dec., 1804). (a) 

Of the ancestry of William Hays little is known except that he was 
of Irish descent. (6) He was a weaver .by trade, and probably had a 
better education than most of his associates, for we are told that while 


( 8 )

living on the Clinch River, he taught Daniel Boone ''some in writing and 
improved hand,” and kept Boone’s accounts, (c) 

They were married just before Susannah’s father, Daniel Boone, set 
out on his expedition for the Henderson Company to mark and cut out 
the road into Kentucky. Some accounts say that William Hays was a 
member of this party. In Kentucky Daniel Boone and his party put up 
a few cabins which were the foundation of Fort Boonesborough, after 
Bhich Boone returned to Virginia for his family. On April 30^ 1776, 
woone took his family and started again over the new road to Kentucky 
where he planned to maj^e his future home. In the party were his daugh¬ 
ter Susannah and her husband William Hays. The trip through the 
forest and over the mountains occupied over a month. When they got 
within four miles of the fort, as night was approaching, the entire party 
camped, except William Hays and his wife, who hurried on to Boones¬ 
borough. That night, in the crude frontier fort, Susannah Hays gave 

birth to her first child, on June 12, 1776, one month and twelve days 
after their leaving North Carolina, (e) This child, Elizabeth Hays, 
was without doubt the first white child born in Kentucky. (/, g & K) 

On Feb. 7, 1778, Daniel Boone was captured by Indians and carried 

away into captivity, {i) While he was a prisoner of the Indians and 
English, his wife Rebecca Boone and her children, accompanied by 
William Hays and his wife Susannah, went back to Mrs. Boone’s father’s 
(Joseph Bryan’s), on the Yadkin River in North Carolina. In the spring 
the Hays returned to Kentucky, during which journey Elizabeth Hays, 
their eldest daughter, was carried on a horse by George Bryan, son of 
Morgan Bryan, Jr. (/) 

William Hays took part in the Siege of Fort Boonesborough. At that 

time, seeing an Indian sitting behind a tree. Hays took a shot at him, 

breaking the red man’s knee and splintering one of his thigh bones. It 
is said that the Indian lived some time, perhaps weeks, but finally died 

of his wounds, (c) William Hays was enrolled as a pioneer soldier of 

Kentucky, on June 10, 1779, in Capt. John Holder’s company, at Boones¬ 
borough. (m) From 1779 to 1783, Hays was a Captain at Bryan’s 

Station under Colonels Levi Todd and Daniel Boone. (/) When on Aug. 

15, 1782, the Indians attacked Bryan’s Station, Captain William Hays 

raised, probably on the second day of the siege, a party of about twelve 
men at Boone’s Station, and hurried to their relief, (c, i <Sc k) Some¬ 
where on the way they met the men from Lexington, and all went on to 
Bryan’s Station together. During the siege Hays, who was on horse¬ 
back, received a bullet wound in the back of the neck. He was so severe¬ 
ly stunned that he was almost insensible, but managed to stay on his 
horse and escaped. Later Capt. Hays was detailed to attend to the build¬ 
ing of canoes and collecting of provisions for Gen. George Rogers Clark’s 
Army in 1781.

Probably about 1785, William and Susannah Hays came into posses¬ 
sion of Daniel Boone’s Marble Creek farm, five miles west of Boone’s 
Station, and remained there until the fall of 1799, when they moved with 
Daniel Boone’s party to Missouri. Hays and his son, William Hays, 
Jr., joined that section of the party which went overland from Limestone 
or some point below, adding their livestock to the rest. Their route was 
through Lexington, Louisville, Vincennes, and St. Louis, (c) The Hays 

family settled in St. Charles Co., Missouri. 

Captain Hays was a man of high temper, and was killed in a quarrel 
with his son-in-law, James Davis. He had forbidden Davis to come on 
his place, but his order was disobeyed. When he threatened to shoot, 
Davis fired first, and after several hours suffering Hays died, (h) This 
occurred at Femme Osage, in the district of St. Charles, in the Territory 
of Louisiana (now Mo.).

103 . JEMIMA BOONE {Daniel^; Squire^; George^), born 4 Oct., 1762, 
in North Carolina; died 1829 in Montgomery Co. Mo. 

Married about 1782, Flanders Callaway (b. 9 Dec. 1758, in Va.; d. 
19 Aug. 1824), son of James Callaway, (a) (See the Sketch of Callaway 
Family.) 

Flanders Callaway was reared in either Culpepper or Bedford Co., 
Va., and was the eldest of three sons, his younger brothers being James 
and Micajah. He ran away from home and went with some other young 
men at an early date to Kentucky, locating at Boonesborough. 

The dramatic capture by Indians of Jemima Boone and the two 
Callaway girls, is a matter of history. A number of accounts of this 
event have been left by their contemporaries, all of which are interesting. 
We are giving here the statement of Jemima’s cousin Daniel Bryan, son 
of William and Mary (Boone) Bryan. He says:— 

“Jemima Callaway was so fond of playing in the water, (till perhaps 
14 years of age), that her common name was Duck. I have had a chat 
with all the girls since their captivity, but more especially with my cousin, 
Mima Callaway. On July 14th, 1776, (it was on Sunday), the girls had gone 
down to the river, and for diversion had gotten into the canoe. After some 
time they discovered that they had gotten nearly out of sight of the fort. 
They now endeavored to turn their canoe and go back to the fort. This 
only took them farther into the stream, and till they had gotten within 
fifteen yards of the other side, when (they discovered) an Indian appeared, 
came down and swam in, and brought their canoe to. They could only 
scream, for to jump out was to drown, and their cries produced an alarm at 
the fort. When the men came down they could not get over. One at length 
swam over, and brought back the canoe, which the Indians had taken to 
the other side. 

It was so late, it is my impression they didn’t pursue on far that night, 
but returned to supply themselves with provisions, and came back as soon 
as they could see to follow the trace next morning. The Indians led the girls 
immediately up the bank and straight off without any delay whatever. The 
trail was exceedingly obscure. If they trod down a leaf or broke off a limb 
it was noticed and the Indians turned it the other way, so as to conceal the 
appearance. They were also threatened for such, when discovered. The 
pursuit and flight, on either hand, was only interrupted by night. The girls 
were taken along for some distance, and their dresses were shortened and the 
slips (strips?) bandaged around their legs to enable them to walk with more 
speed. The pursuers could not keep the trail and travel fast. They for a 
time just struck out to the right, as if they would go before, and then return¬ 
ing, found a trail they could follow at quick speed. The third day the 
Indians passed a rolling ground that commanded the trail for some 150 or 
200 yards, placed a sentry there and proceeded down on the other side about 
70 yards; intending to secure the tomahawking of the girls and their own 
escape should they be surprised. The sentinel, however, became impatient, 
being hungry, and it is supposed about the time he thought the venison to 
be boiled down, to have gone down to the fire. Just then the party came in 
view, and ascending the rising ground, as Boone had ordered, charged on the 
party of Indians, a part of them shooting and some reserving their fire. 
Boone hallowed to the girls to fall to the ground, but they, heedlessly, rushed 





120 


Poone jFamilp 


to the whites. The guns were mostly taken. Boone shot one man who 
dropped his gun. None were fired (of their guns). The Indians were not 
pursued, and the party returned immediately.^^ (6) 

Flanders Callaway, who married Jemima Boone, and Samuel Hender¬ 
son, who married one of the Callaway girls, were members of the rescue 
party which overtook the Indians and brought the girls back home. The 
place where the rescue was effected was near what is now Flat Rock, Ky., 
on the place now (1921) owned and occupied by Carrol Hamilton, a Boone 
descendant. 

It was thought by their daughter, Mrs. Frances Lamme, that Flanders 
Callaway and Jemima Boone were married by Flanders’ uncle. Col. 
Richard Callaway, (c) (See Sketch of the Callaway Family.) 

At the siege of Boonesborough, ‘^Mrs. Jemima Callaway said she ran 
many bullets and would take them in her apron too hot to handle, and 
distribute them. She also aided in putting out the fired roofs, and said 
that women would dress in men’s clothes and parade around to make 
an increased show of numbers.” (d) Flanders Callaway was one of the 
treaty commissioners at the siege of Boonsborough, and in running to 
the fort had the little finger of his left hand shot off. (d) 

Taking his family Callaway removed to Missouri with Daniel Boone, 
and settled in what is now Warren Co. With his sixteen year old son, 
Flanders, Jr., he joined Daniel in driving the stock over the land route 
from Louisville to St. Louis, while the women and children of the party 
went by boat down the Ohio and up the Mississippi Rivers, (e) After 
settling in Missouri Callaway made a practice of going out every fall or 
early winter to hunt and trap, generally taking with him a negro named 
Mose who was a good trapper, and sometimes also his son John or son 
James. On these occasions the Indians would sometimes rob him of 
skins and horses. Perceiving that the Indians had a great reverence and 
respect for August Chouteau, a French trapper, Callaway formed the 
habit of marking his skins with the initials of his own name, “F. C.” 
When an Indian party would appear and demand the skins, he would 
promptly display the markings and say “Chouteau,” thus conveying the 
idea that the skins belonged Jo Chouteau. The Indians would receive 
this very soberly and go away without the skins, as they knew if they 
took them the marks might betray them to Chouteau, whom they did 
not care to rob. After that they took only Callaway’s horses, but some 
of these were recovered. These hunting trips occurred before the War 
of 1812. Callaway went back several times to Kentucky, not only to 
dispose of his furs and pelts, but also to procure household supplies. 
(/ & g) At an early date, probably before 1808, he and his wife, 
Jemima (Boone) Callaway, rode all the way on horseback to Kentucky, 
to visit friends and relatives, (h) 

It was at their home in Charette, Mo., that Daniel Boone made his 
home for a while in his old age. After a long illness Flanders Callaway 


(Generation 


121 


died at his home in Missouri, and was followed in death a few years later 
by his wife. It is said that Flanders Callaway was a “tall, spare, thin- 
visaged, swarthy man.^^ (h)

104 . LEVINA BOONE (Daniel^; Squire"^; George^), born 23 Mar., 1766; 
died in Clark Co., Ky., 6 Apr., 1802, aged 36 years and 15 days. 

Married about 1785, Joseph Scholl (b. 1755; d. 1835) (a), son of 
William and Leah (Morgan) Scholl. (See Sketch of Scholl Family.) 

It is quite probable that Joseph Scholl was born in the Shenandoah 
Valley in Va., as his older brother, Peter, was born there. In 1779 he 
went to Ky. and settled. No doubt he was in a great many of the 
Indian fights there, for we know that he was in the Battle of Blue Licks 
in August, 1782. 

“About 1803 or ’04 Joseph Scholl Sr., Jesse B. Boone, David Denton 
and one Van Bibber” went to Missouri to see the country. Joseph Scholl 
had a fine new rifle made for him by Daniel Bryan (nephew of Daniel 
Boone) a famous rifle maker in his day. While Scholl was in Missouri, 
Daniel Morgan Boone (son of Daniel Boone) borrowed this gun to take 
on a hunt he and his father were planning to make in the fall, promising 
to return it the next summer when he went to Kentucky on a visit. 
While on this hunting trip an Indian stole the gun from Daniel M. Boone, 
and we are not told whether Joseph Scholl, the rightful owner, ever 
regained his gun. We may surmise that he did, however, from this 
statement of Joseph Scholl, Jr., who tells the narative: 





122 


®f)e ?loonc Jfamilp 


“As the Indian departed with his illy gotten prize, Daniel Morgan 
Boone asked his father for his gun, saying he was not disposed to lose his 
fine rifle.’' (h) 

No doubt a little rifle skirmish brought back the stolen property. 
Joseph Scholl died in Clark Co., Ky., leaving a number of children, 
all of whom except Joseph, Jr., the youngest, died prior to 1868. (6)

105 . REBECCA BOONE {Daniel^; Squire"^; George^), born 26 May, 
1768, in North Carolina (a); died 14 July, 1805, in Clark Co., Ky., at the 
home of her sister Mrs. Scholl (Lavinia Boone). 

Married Philip Goe (b. 24 Mar., 1767; d. in Nicholas Co., Ky., Mar. 
1805). 

The following brief history of Philip and Rebecca Goe was compiled 
from various Draper Manuscripts by Miss Alice A. Nunns of the His¬ 
torical Society of Wisconsin, for Miss Lucy Jane Kemper of Butte, Mon¬ 
tana. 

In 1788 when Daniel Boone went to Philadelphia on a commercing 
trip, he left his son-in-law Philip Goe to attend to his business at Lime¬ 
stone (now Maysville), Kentucky. Mrs. Philip Goe apparently went then 
or some short time before to her husband’s parents’ home on Little Red¬ 
stone Creek in Fayette Co., Pa. There her father visited her, and upon 
his return in the autumn of 1789 she went to Kentucky with him. In 
1789 Daniel Boone moved to Point Pleasant in what is now West Vir¬ 
ginia. Apparently the Goes stayed in Kentucky. Daniel Boone and his 
son Nathan returned to Kentucky in 1796, and opened up a new farm on 
Brushy Fork of Huckston Creek in what is now Nicholas County. This 
land belonged to Daniel M. Boone, and when he went to Missouri in 
1799 he sold it to Philip Goe, who lived there the rest of his life. After 
Philip Goe and his wife died on this homestead in the same year, leaving 
seven children, Danile Morgan Boone went to Kentucky and took charge

of his orphan nephews and nieces, taking all but the eldest and youngest 
children back to Missouri with him. 

Children:—

106 . DANIEL MORGAN BOONE {Daniel^; Squire^; George^), born 
23 Dec., 1769; died in Jackson Co., Mo., (a) 13 July, 1839, aged 71 years, 
1 mo., 19 days. 

Married in St. Charles Co., Mo., 2 Mar., 1800, Sarah Griffin Lewis 
(b. 29 Jan., 1786, in Va., died 19 June, 1850), daughter of John and 
Elizabeth (Harvie) Lewis. 

Daniel Morgan Boone settled in Darst Bottom, St. Charles Co., Mo. 
in 1795, but moved to Montgomery Co., Mo., in 1816. (e) 

An account of their marriage was published in the ^‘Springfield Daily 
Leader,^^ Sept. 18, 1915, as follows: 

“St. Charles, Mo., Sept. 18—. An account of the marriage of Daniel 
Morgan Boone, eldest son of Daniel Boone the famous pioneer of the Ohio 
Valley, was found today in the vaults of St. Charles Borromeo’s Catholic 
Church here, which was wrecked by a tornado on July 7th. 

“The account of the wedding was written by Father Leander Lusson, 
priest of the church at the time of the marriage. 

“The account says: 

“‘On March 2, 1800, have appeared before me, Frere Leander Lusson, 
recollect priest an(i pastor of St. (Sharles parish in Missouri, Daniel Morgan 
Boone, the legitimate and oldest son of Daniel Boone and Rebecca Bryan 
his lawful wife, living at St. Charles, Mo., on the one side; and on the other 
Sara Griffin Lewis, a younger an(d legitimate daughter of John Baptist 
Lewis and Elizabeth Harvey his lawful wife, her parents living at the port 
of St. Andrew. The which parties have declared to me their intention to 
bind themselves with the mutual pledge of marriage. After giving their 
oath on the Holy Bible to answer truthfully to all the points on which I must 
interrogate them, they have consented to answer. 

“‘Being asked what religion they professed, the said Daniel Morgan 
Boone said he was a Presbyterian, and the said Sara Griffin Lewis said that 





124 


Poonc Jfatnilp 


she professed the Protestant religion. Being asked if they would promise 
to bring the children born of this union to the church of the place near their 
future dwelling to be baptised, and send them to be instructed in religion, 
they answered “Yes.’’ 

‘“Being asked if their parents were related within the forbidden degrees, 
so that according to their religion they could not contract marriage, they 
answered “No.” Being asked from what country they came, the said Daniel 
Morgan Boone replied that he was a native of Virginia, in the diocese of 
Baltimore, and that he was living here with his parents; and the said Sara 
Griffin Lewis replied that she was likewise a native of Virginia, and that she 
lived with her father and mother. 

“ ‘Being asked whether their parents gave their consent to their marriage, 
their fathers and mothers, being present, answered, “Yes Sir.” Being asked 
if they had been constrained by violence or threats or by force of authority 
to pledge their troth in marriage, they answered, “No Sir.” 

“ ‘After the aforesaid information and after the publication of the bans 
on eight consecutive Sundays at the door of our Church of St. Charles, and 
also at the house of Mr. Mackay, Commandant of the said village and post 
of St. Andrew, the said Daniel Morgan Boone has, in my presence, taken the 
said Sara Griffin Lewis for his lawful wife, and pledged to her his marriage 
vow. And in return the said Sara Griffin Lewis has taken the said Daniel 
Morgan Boone for her lawful husband, and has plighted to him her troth. 
And I have received their mutual consent, and united them in the bonds of 
matrimony.’ ” 

His military record reads: 

“Daniel M. Boone, Ky., Mo. Capt. rangers 19 July, 1813; resd. 21 June, 
1814; Capt. Mo. rangers to Sept., 1814.” (6) 


In 1816 he moved to Montgomery Co. He held several prominent posi¬ 
tions under the Government, and during the Indian War was appointed Colonel 
of the Militia. He made most of the early Government surveys in the present 
counties of St. Charles, Warren, Montgomery and Lincoln. At the time of his 
death he was living in Jackson County. In appearance he resembled his father 
more than any of the other children. “He was below medium height, and 
stoutly built, had light hair, blue eyes, fair complexion, and a voice like a 
woman’s.” (c)

As one of the younger children of Daniel and Rebecca Boone, Jesse 
Boone was literally cradled in the wilderness, and as a very tiny child 
probably witnessed some of the harrowing scenes connected with the early 
struggles of Fort Boonesborough. 

“Early Western Travel” by Reuben Golde Thwaites, Vol. IV, p. 156, says: 

“Judge Boone has a good house on the left about three miles farther 
down, opposite to which on the Ohio side is the beginning of French Grant.” 

Foot-note by Thwaites says: 

“This was Jesse Boone, son of the well-known pioneer, Daniel, who had 
removed to Missouri with his other sons in 1798. Jesse Boone remained 
behind; was inspector of salt-works for West Virginia and Justice of the 
Kentucky County Court for Greenup.” (d) 

We know very little of his life, however, until he was married and 
settled in Missouri, where he became quite prominent and influential. 
In spite of the disadvantages of his youth, he is said to have had a fairly 
good education. He was a member of the first Missouri Legislature at 
the time of his death in 1820.

109 . NATHAN BOONE (Daniel^; Squire'^; George^), born 2 Mar., 1781, 
at Boone’s Station, now Cross Plains, Fayette Co., Ky. (a); died in Green 
Co., Mo., 16 Oct., 1856, in his 76th year, {h & c) 

Married 26 Sept., 1799, in Kentucky, Olive Van Bibber (b. 13 Jan., 
1783, in Greenbriar Co., on the banks of Greenbriar River, Ky.; d. in 
Missouri 12 Nov., 1858, in her 75th year), daughter of Peter Van Bibber 
and wife Margary Bounds. (6) Some say she was a sister of the wife of 
Jesse Boone (107). 

Nathan Boone spent his early childhood in the primitive settlements 
of Kentucky, and' married at the age of eighteen. In September, 1799, he 
assisted his father in removing the family to Missouri. Draper Manu¬ 
script 6 S 18-254, gives an account of this journey as follows: 

“Daniel M. Boone and Nathan Boone started with their mother in the 
boat (called a pirogue) while Col. Boone started with the s^tock by land, assist¬ 
ed by a young man named George Buchanan and D. M. Boone’s negro 
Sam. At Limestone (now Maysville) Nathan Boone got his marriage 
license and returned (75 miles) to Little Sandy, where Mr. Peter Van Bibber 
then lived, and Sept. 26th was married to Miss Olive Van Bibber; then 
started out and went all the way by land via Lexington, Louisville, Vincennes 
and St. Louis.” 

“The young couple located in St. Charles Co., Mo. In local history we find 
the following:— 

“From 1800 to 1812 he (Nathan Boone) was employed surveying 
Government land in what are now St. Charles, Montgomery and Warren 
Counties. In 1870, he with his brother Daniel surveyed a road from St. 
Charles to Blue Lick in Howard County, a road that is still in use. In 
1820 he finished a large stone two-story house in St. Charles County, Mo. 
In this house his father Daniel Boone died, September 20, 1820. * * * * 
Nathan Boone was a member of the Constitutional Convention of 1820 
and was in the U. S. Army from 1832 to 1853.” (d) ^ 





(Generation 


127 


“Gardner’s Dictionary of the Army” gives Nathan Boone’s exact military 
record as follows:— 


“Capt. Rangers 25 March, 1812; Major Missouri Mtd. Rangers, 10 
Dec., 1813; continued Capt. Rangers in 1814; disbanded June, 1815. 
Mounted Rangers, 16 June, 1832; Capt. 1st. Dragoons, Aug 1833; Major 
1st. Dragoons 16 June, 1847; Lieut. Col. 2nd. Dragoons 25 July, 1850; re¬ 
signed 15 July, 1855.” 


“A similar record is found in Heitman’s “Historical Register.” (e) Still an¬ 
other account of his military life reads as follows:— 


“As the war (1812) had now fairly commenced, an act of Congress 
authorized the raising of six companies of Rangers, three to be raised on the 
Missouri side of the Mississippi River, and the other three on the Illinois 
side. The Missouri companies were commanded by Daniel M. Boone, 
Nathan Boone, and David Musick. The commission of Nathan Boone was 
dated in June, 1812, to serve a year. * * * * On 15 August, 1813, Capt. 
Nathan Boone, and a party of spies under his command, while on a scout 
between the Mississippi and Illinois Rivers, were attacked in the night by 
three times their number, but no lives were lost. About the September 
following, Maj. Nathan Boone was of the party which accompanied Gen. 
Howard’s expedition to Peoria, where a fort was built. A little later, 
there were some Indian disturbances, and Maj. Nathan Boone and Capt. 
Samuel Whitesides scoured the country.” (/) 


A brief history of Olive (Van Bibber) Boone’s early life and marriage 
is contained in a statement made by her during her lifetime. A news¬ 
paper clipping, unnamed and undated, was sent to us, containing an 
account of this interesting record. Efforts have been made to locate the 
branch of the family in which this quaint and interesting document is 
preserved, but without success. It is said to be a statement made by Mrs. 
Nathan Boone, recorded in the handwriting of Mrs. John C. Boone (her 
daughter-in-law) and preserved in the family of L. N. Boone of Webster 
Grove, Missouri. After saying that she was born the 13th of January, 
1783; and grew up at the mouth of the Big Kanawha River, Mrs. Nathan 
Boone continues: 


“After the death of my father, Peter Van Bibber, my mother and I 
lived with my brother in Ohio, on the Ohio, opposite the mouth of the Big 
Sandy River. I was married on the 26th of Sept., 1799. On the first of 
October, without any company but my husband, I started to Missouri, or 
Upper Louisiana. We had two ponies and our packhorse. After being on 
our journey some time we were overtaken by a man and woman who travelled 
with us to Vincennes. We remained there nearly three weeks, in con¬ 
sequence of getting one of our ponies crippled. We travelled alone the 
remainder of the way, arriving in St. Louis the last of October. My husband 
was offered eighty acres of land (in the center of what was afterwards the 
city) for one of our ponies. He laughed and said he would not give one of the 
ponies for the whole town. We went to St. Charles County, and located 
about twenty miles above St. Charles. We crossed the Missouri River at 
St. Charles by placing our goods in a skiff. My husband rowed and I steered 
and held the horse by the bridle. It was rather a perilous trip for so young a 
couple. I was just sixteen, my husband eighteen.”

120 . ELIZABETH BOONE (Georg^; Squire*; George^), born about 1765; 
died when past 90 years of age. 

Married about 1792, Jesse Gopher (b. about 1760; died 1822), son of 
Thomas Gopher who was born in Pennsylvania but settled in Virginia. 

Jesse Gopher was raised in Gulpepper Go., Va., and came to Ken¬ 
tucky as a young man. He was rather clumsy in build, so never made 
much of a hunter, but became a farmer instead. 

He was a soldier in the Revolutionary Army; was captured with 
Kenton and Bullock, and taken to Detroit, where they were all kept a 
long time. Eventually they escaped thro’ assistance given them by the 
wife of a storekeeper there. Kenton became acquainted with her and 
frankly said he wished help to escape. She promised to furnish pro¬ 
visions secretly, and arms if she could, but her husband must not be 
involved, and her life might be the forfeit if it were known she had helped 
them. She hid some ^‘jerk” in a hollow tree, which had been agreed upon, 
and one evening, when some Indians had encamped nearby and stacked 
their guns while they were drinking, she stole three of the guns and hid 
them. She took ammunition from her husband’s store, and one night 
with a ladder climbed the picketing (the prisoners were confined in some 
sort of stockade) to give them the guns and ammunition. She had gotten 
an Irishman who lived in Detroit to tell them, that if he were a prisoner 
and wished to escape he would take the usual route thro’ the Wyandotte, 
Shawnee and Delaware country, then down to the Falls of the Ohio 
(Louisville, Ky.). ‘‘Profiting by this hint, they steered in that direction,” 
and although they frequently heard guns, they saw no Indians, but 
supposed they were being pursued. At first they traveled only during 
the nights. Their “jerk” gave out, and finally they were forced in spite 
of their fear of discovery to shoot a deer. Just as it fell they discovered 
a party of Indians at a distance and hid themselves in a thicket. The 
Indians, however, disappeared and they enjoyed a feast of venison, “jerk¬ 
ing” the rest of it. Soon after they reached the Falls of the Ohio, (a) 

Jesse Gopher and Elizabeth Boone were married in 179-, in Ky., and 
settled in Glark Go., where he took up a pre-emption of 1400 acres on 
Stoner Greek, most of which he lost later by a prior location, (a) 

In the War of 1812 he was Gaptain of the Kentucky Militia Vol¬ 
unteers, commanded by Gol. Richard Davenport. 

Following the loss of his land he moved to Boone Go., Mo., in 1819. 
For many years he and his wife were members of the Baptist Ghurch. 

Both of them died in Missouri, leaving a large family of children, one 
of whom, Samuel, lived ten or twelve miles north of Golumbia, Boone 
Go. (a) 

Jesse Gopher and Elizabeth Boone had eleven children, all mentioned 
in his will, which was signed 5 July, 1822; produced in Boone Go. (Mo.) 
Gircuit Gourt and proven 21 Sept., 1822; and recorded on 18 Oct., 1822, 
in Will Book “A” page 120, 1 and 2.

122 . WILLIAM LINVILLE BOONE {George^; Squire^; George^), born 
22 Feb., 1768, in North Carolina; died 13 Apr., 1847, in Shelby Co., Ky. 
(o) 

Married 1st, 16 Aug., 1789, Nancy Grubbs (b. 8 June, 1771; d. 22 
Mar., 1835 at Fayette, Mo.), a daughter of Higgason and Lucy (Harris) 
Grubbs (See the Grubbs Family Sketch), and married 2nd, in 1840, 
Mrs. Ann (Bryan) Perry. 

William Linville Boone was the third child of George (brother of 
Daniel) and Ann or Nancy (Linville) Boone. About 1780, it is said he 
came from Virginia with his parents, who were among the very early 
pioneers, to Madison County, Ky., where in 1780, his father founded 
Boone's Station, about one and one-half or two miles north of the pre¬ 
sent courthouse in Richmond. 

In 1789, he was married to Nancy Grubbs, the marriage rites being 
solemnized by Rev. Christopher Harris, of Old Baptist Faith, who was 
a brother of Lucy (Harris) Grubbs, thus being an uncle of the bride. 

After his uncle, Edward Boone, had been killed by Indians in 1780, 
William, his father, George Boone, and his uncle Daniel Boone, were in the 
party which went out to bring in the mutilated body. 

In the fall of 1799, when Daniel Boone moved to Missouri, William 
L. Boone was one of the party which went by boat, but he did not stay 
long and returned without trying to get a grant of land from Spain. 
(Missouri was then Spanish territory.) 

During the closing years of the 18th, and the early part of the 19th 
Centuries there were two men by the name of William Boone living in 
Madison County, Ky. One is the subject of this sketch, and the other 
was probably his cousin, William Boone, whose wife was Margaret.

In Deed Book ‘‘G,” page 431, we find '‘on 6th February, 1810, 
Higgason Grubbs, and wife, Lucy (Harris), for 1500 dollars, conveyed to 
William Boone a tract of land, granted by the Commonwealth of Ky., 
to Higgason Grubbs, 2 March, 1789, on the waters of Muddy Creek and 
the Kentucky River.” 

Again in Deed Book "G,” page 533, “on 11 October, 1810, Edward 
Boone and his wife, Dorcas, of Shelby County, Ky., for 600 pounds, 
conveyed to William Boone, of Madison County, 185 acres of land on 
Tates and Otter Creeks in Madison County.” The Edward Boone men¬ 
tioned was probably William Boone’s brother Edward, whose wife was 
Mrs. Dorcas (Simpson) White. It is thought that both of these convey¬ 
ances were made to the subject of this sketch, son of George and Anne 
(Linville) Boone, for George Boone, Sr., owned lands near Richmond, on 
the head waters of the Tates and Otter Creeks. The two creeks head 
together in the northern part of the city of Richmond, where the ridge 
divides the head stream of the two creeks, (c) 

“On 2 February, 1810, William Boone and wife, Nancy (Grubbs), 
conveyed to Richard Tunstall Jr., land on Tates Creek in Madison County 
Ky., adjoining Berry and others.” Witnesses to this deed were Re¬ 
becca Harris, and their two daughters, Lucy and Mrs. Milly (Boone) 
Carson, wife of William Carson. The land of Lindsay Carson, father of 
the William Carson mentioned above, adjoined the William Boone land. 
James Berry was an uncle of Nancy (Grubbs) Boone and thus a great 
uncle of William Boone. 

In 1811, William Boone and family, including his son-in-law, Andrew 
Tribble, with his family, moved to Shelby County, Ky. Just how long he 
lived here we do not know. After a time (1818) he moved to Missouri, 
settling near Columbia, Boone Co. (a), living there until after the death 
of his wife, Nancy (Grubbs) in 1835, when soon after he returned to 
Kentucky, and again located in Shelby County. 

In Heitman’s Historical Register (1789-19—), page 230, we find the 
record of William Boone of Kentucky, being 3d Lieut, of Rangers on 
1 Aug., 1813, in Illinois Territory; and honorably discharged “15 (Aug.?) 
1815.” This may refer to the subject, William Linville Boone. 

In 1845, he was sent by the Kentucky Legislature to Missouri to 
gain the consent of Nathan Boone, son of Daniel, for the removal of the 
bodies of Daniel and his wife, Rebecca (Bryan) Boone, from Missouri to 
Frankfort, Ky. He was successful in this mission, and was one of the 
pall-bearers at the time of their removal. 

In 1840, at the age of seventy-two he was married a second time to 
Mrs. Ann (Bryan) Perry. A few years later (1847), he died and was 
buried on the old Major Andrew Tribble farm in Shelby County. In 
those days each family had its own private burial ground.

129 . ‘‘CAPTAIN’' SAMUEL BOONE {George^; Squire^; George^), born 
15 Jan., 1782, at Hoy’s Station in Madison County, Ky.; died Sept., 
1869. (a) 

Married in the fall of 1804, Ann Simpson of Kentucky (b. abt. 1788; 
d. Feb., 1873), a sister of Mrs. Dorcas (Simpson) White, who married 
Samuel’s brother Edward. 

In the summer of 1804, James Callaway, William Hays, and perhaps 
Boone Hays, all grandsons of Daniel Boone, went from Missouri to Ken¬ 
tucky with a lot of furs and pelts. When they started back home, Sam¬ 
uel Boone went part way with them, then turned back, and was married 
that fall (1804). 

In Madison County (Ky.) Court records. Deed Book F, page 601, on 
10 Aug., 1807, we find “George Boone and wife, Anna, for 300 pounds 
conveyed to Samuel Boone 100 acres of land on Otter Creek in Madison 
County, Ky., part of said George Boone’s tract he lived on.” 

In the battle on the Thames River, 5 October, 1813, Samuel was in 
Col. James Simrall’s mounted regiment, in the reserve on the extreme 
left. The horses had all been left on the south side of Lake Erie. After 
the battle, it was reported that Tecumseh, which name is said to mean 
“meteor” or “flying panther,” was killed. Gen. William Henry Harrison 
said he had often seen Tecumseh, and would know him, by a scar on his 
face. A young British officer said Tecumseh had been wounded on the 
wrist, in a skirmish the day before. Gen. Harrison, Shelby, the young 
British officer, and others' went to view the body. Gen. Harrison found 
the scar on the face; the wound on the wrist; the nicely fringed hunting- 
jacket, as described by the British officer, and pronounced it to be 
Tecumseh’s body. This was in the evening and a large crowd of soldiers 
had followed, Capt. Samuel Boone among them. Next morning Harrison 
and Shelby again examined the Indian’s body, and again stated their 
opinions that it was Tecumseh. This time Col. Simrall’s regiment was 
drawn up closely, and Capt. Boone said he heard Gen. Harrison make 
this assertion on one or both occasions. Tecumseh’s thighs had been 
skinned for razor strops. In the first part of this battle Johnson’s left 
wing, or troops on the left, gave way, but rallied, and were reinforced 
by Col. Simrall, who was ordered to do so by Col. Isaac Shelby, in com¬ 
mand of twelve Kentucky regiments in this battle. There was no more 


^ixtl) <§cnEration 


135 


fighting, however. It is traditionally reported that Tecumseh was killed 
by Col. Richard M. Johnson of Ky., although it has never been proven. 

Some time prior to his moving to Mo., Samuel wrote to his uncle, 
Daniel Boone, offering him a fine farm in Ky., with all expenses paid, to 
live on the rest of his life, if he (Daniel Boone) would return and identify 
some early surveys he had made. This Daniel Boone refused to do, and 
it is thought never did return to Ky. as long as he lived. 

Late in the fall of 1817 Samuel Boone made his first visit to Mo., 
and found his uncle (Daniel Boone) then living with his son Nathan. (6) 

Captain Samuel Boone settled in Callaway County, Mo., in 1818, and 
in 1820, he assisted in building the first Baptist Church, called Salem, 
in that county. 

He always had his milling done at Charette, Mo., and when he went 
in the summer of 1820 to have it done, Daniel Boone went with him to 
make a visit at his son-in-law’s, Flanders Callaway. They set out in 
Samuel Boone’s wagon to make the trip, about 40 miles, but were over¬ 
taken by nightfall, and camped near the lower or eastern end of Loutre 
prairie, a mile or two west of the Camp Branch, a noted camping spot 
for travelers and movers. They spread some bedclothes on the grass, it 
being a pleasant summer night, tied the horses to the wagon and fed 
them. After eating their own supper they went to bed. In the night a 
heavy dew fell on them, and next morning Daniel Boone complained of 
headache. They went on into Charette, where Daniel Boone decided to 
stay for a while as he was not feeling well. 

After getting his milling done Samuel Boone went on home, and the 
last part of August went to Ky. on a visit, where he found his own father 
(George Boone) not at all well. Here he stayed until after his father’s 
death on 14 November, 1820. While he was in Ky., Daniel Boone died. 

Samuel Boone was six feet tall, spare in build, light complexioned and 

mild in his manners. 

He and his wife were both Baptists for many years, and on the 12 
and 13 of June, 1868, when he was interviewed by Dr. Lyman C. Draper 
(6) they were living near Williamsburg, Callaway Co., Mo., with their son 
Tucker, Mrs. Boone being 80 years old at that time. 

He probably died and was buried in Missouri. 

Very little is known about his descendants, those who are known 
being: 

Children:— 

471 Jeptha Boone. 

472 Mary A. Boone. 

-1-473 Elizabeth C. Boone, m. her double cousin Dr, Banion Boone, son of Ed¬ 
ward and Dorcas (Simpson-White) Boone. (For their further history 
and their descendants, see the Edward Boone line, as the line of 
descent will be traced through the father instead of the mother, when 
both are Boone descendants. See No. 477.)

died Aug., 1869. (a) 

Married Mrs. Dorcas Simpson-White (d. 1844 or ’45) (a), widow of 
Archibald White, the son of John White, a Revolutionary Soldier. 

Dorcas Simpson and her (1st) husband, Archibald White, had two sons: 
(a) Morgan B. White, who m. (1) Mary Ann Marmaduke, of Shelby County, 
Ky., and (2) Mrs. —(M’Murty) Hughes. (Morgan B. White was a witness to 
the will of Lynch B. Owen, probated in Madison County [Ky.] Court, 20 July, 
1868. Lynch B. Owen must have been related to the Boones, for the name 
Lynch was given several members of the Boone and Tribble families); and (b) 
Archibald White, Jr. 

In 1809, Edward Boone bought of Jesse Noland and wife, Sarah 
(Turner), 180 acres of land on Tates and Otter Creeks in Madison County, 

Ky. 

In Deed Book page 533, on 11 Oct., 1810, Edward Boone and 
wife, Dorcas, of Shelby County, Ky., for 600 pounds, conveyed to William 
Boone, of Madison County, Ky., 186 acres of land on the waters of Tates 
and Otter Creeks, in the latter county. 

From 'Tioneers of Missouri,” comes this: ^‘Edward Boone married 
the widow White, whose maiden name was Dorcas Simpson. She was a 
sister of Samuel Boone’s wife, and at the time of her marriage with Mr. 
Boone, had a son, Morgan B. White, who was still living in Callaway 
County, Mo.” (Written in 1876.) 

Edward Boone went to Mo., shortly after Samuel did (1818), and 
settled in the same neighborhood, Callaway Co. (b & c). He was said 
to be living in Green County, Mo., in 1854, then about 71 years old. (6)

1821, in Clark Co., Ky.), a native of the Shenandoah Valley, and a son 
of William Scholl and wife Leah Morgan. 

Their son John gave the following information to Dr. Draper in 1868:— 

“Peter Scholl, a native of the Shenandoah Valley, died on waters of 
Stoner, Clark Co., Ky., Sept. 11, 1821. He was born probably about 
1754. In about 1782 married Mary Boone, daughter of Edward Boone 
(bro. of Col. Daniel Boone), she perhaps about eighteen at that time and 
he about ten years her senior. Hence Peter Scholl when he died was 
about 67 years old. Mrs. Mary Scholl died at same place Sept. 28, 
1825.* * Peter Scholl was in Blue Lick Battle.” (a) He was also in the 
battle at Point Pleasant, W. Va. He wore short breeches, long silk stock¬ 
ings and queued his hair; wore large knee and shoe buckles, long vest and 
coat. He memorialized Congress for a pension, but got none because 
he was in good circumstances, ih) Peter Scholl was a Lieutenant under 
Daniel Boone with General George R. Clark in 1782. (c)

138 . JONATHAN BOONE {Squire^; Squire"^; George^), born 30 Aug., 
1766; died 9 March, 1837. 

Married 11 April, 1793, Mrs. Catherine (Rice) Fullenwider (b. 9 
Dec., 1768; d. 19 Jan., 1842, aged 73 years, 1 month, 10 days), (a) 

Jonathan, the eldest son of Squire, Jr., and Jane (Van Cleve) Boone, 
was born ^‘on Saturday, about 10 o’clock in the morning,” in the Forks 
of the Yadkin River, N. C. In 1775 or ’76, when Squire Boone’s family 
moved to Fort Boonesborough from N. C., Jonathan, then a boy of about 
nine, was brought along. As a small boy, he was present at the Siege of 
Boonesborough, and in the spring of 1779, went with the family in their 
move to the Falls of the Ohio (Louisville). In that same year he was 
taken by his father to Kaskaskia (Illinois), where he was left to learn the 
French language. Here he remained four years. 

About four years after his return from Kaskaskia, which would be 
in 1787, he was sent to Berks County, Pa., to stay with relatives and 
attend school. Here his father’s cousin, James Boone, gave him instruc¬ 
tions. When he returned home to Kentucky, the next year, he brought 
with him the “Boone Genealogy” written by James Boone and dated 21 
March, 1788. (6) 

After this there is no further record of him until his marriage in 
1793, to Mrs. Catherine (Rice) Fullen wider, who was a daughter of 
Jacob I. and Anne Rice. Her first husband, Henry Fullen wider, died 
of malaria, leaving her with several children. The marriage of Jonathan 
and Mrs. Fullenwider took place while his father was away on his trip 
to St. Simon’s, Fla., and his visit into Pa. For a while they lived at 
Rice’s Fort, Shelby County; then moved to Brandenburg, Ky., (c) from 
which place they eventually moved to Crawford County, Ind. (possibly 
to Alton or near there), where he died in 1837. 

Jonathan Boone was a man who loved a life of adventure and was 
clever in many ways, besides being a fine hunter. “One of his descend¬ 
ants has a book which he wrote, quite a wonderful piece of workmanship, 
binding and all most remarkable, made entirely by him, written in a fine 
style of penmanship, and exhibiting much scientific knowledge, and for 
that day and age (more than a hundred years ago) is marvelous. The

binding is bear-skin; the leaves are very thick and fastened to the cover 
with leather strings; the book measures 16 x 10 x 1 inch, and on the first 
page are the words, ‘‘Jonathan Boone, his book, A. D. 1787.” The sub¬ 
ject is surveying; there are no family records in the book. It has been 
handed down to the oldest grandchild of the Boone name and is now 
(1910) owned by Charles Boone of Texas (Brandon), and will pass to 
his baby, little Daniel Boone.” (d)

139 . MOSES BOONE {Squire^; Squire^; George^), born 23 Feb., 1769; 
died 8 Mar., 1852. 

Married 20 Dec., 1786, in Jefferson County, Ky., (a) Hannah Boone 
{Samuel^; Samuel"^; George^), b. 6 Feb., 1770 (No. 214). 

Judge Moses Boone, the second child of Squire and Jane (VanCleve) 
Boone, was born “on Tuesday, about 6 o’clock in the morning” (6) in 
Rowan County, N. C., near the Forks of the Yadkin, and not far from 
Bear Creek. He was taken as a child with his family when they moved to 
Kentucky in 1775 or 1776, and was with them in their subsequent mov- 
ings about. He himself related that in making this move to Kentucky, 
once when they were going down into a stream which they had to cross, 
he fell off his horse into the water. As he remembered it, Daniel Boone’s 
family and others were in the party. 

At the time of the Siege of Boonesborough he was a small lad about 
nine, but seemed to remember a great deal about it. In Draper Mss. 19 
C 1-56, which is an interview Dr. Lyman C. Draper had with him in 
1846, he gives quite a detailed account of this siege. One very amusing 
incident which he relates in this connection is given here. During the 
first alarm and scuffle, which followed the council with the Indians, a 
“Dutchman” named Matthias Brock, who probably lived with Colonel 
Callaway’s family, ran and hid under the bed at Colonel Callaway’s. Mrs. 
Callaway took the broom stick and punched him out, telling him to go 



140 


t!Cf)e Poone jTamilp 


and fight. Prock, routed out from this secure (?) hiding plaice, ran into 
Squire Boone's gun-smith shop, which adjoined, and hid under the bellows. 
From this hiding place Mrs. Callaway drove him out also. Then he ran 
out and jumped into a new well which was being dug somewhere near 
the old one, and on which he himself had probably been working. He 
kept exclaiming, “Sure, I was not made to fight, I ish a potter." 

At the time of the abandonment of Squire Boone's Station in 1781, 
Moses and his father. Squire Boone, who was still weak from severe 
wounds received in a fight with Indians, were the only men folks left to 
protect their family and Mrs. Hinton's in case of attack by Indians. 
(For a more detailed account of this abandonment of the Station, see the 
sketch of Squire Boone, brother of Daniel, No. 29.) 

When John Callaway returned from Indian captivity about 1785, 
Moses Boone accompanied him from Squire Boone's Station to Boones- 
borough, where his (Callaway's) mother lived, (c) 

In Clark's campaign of 1786, he was in a Company of lighthorse 
under Major Acquilla Whittaker. He himself gave to Dr. Draper the 
following account of the capture of Vincennes by General George Rogers 
Clark, (b) 

They crossed the river at Clarkville, getting within three miles of 
Vincennes and making camp without being discovered. From here Clark 
sent Major Daniel Sullivan, with a party of about twenty, on ahead to 
Vincennes. They went in at night and captured some dozen or fifteen 
Indians who were loitering about. The next morning when Clark ap¬ 
proached town all the leading French went out to meet him. The In¬ 
dians captured the night before were examined and dismissed, hastening 
off to give warning of Clark's coming. After this Clark crossed the Wa¬ 
bash River at Vincennes, and went up the river some two days march. 
Here the Lincoln men called “Loganites" revolted, and after holding a 
general council it was decided, as provisions, which were sent up by boat, 
were nearly gone, to go no further. Following this decision they did 
return home, but with no regularity. 

In the spring of 1787, a party of Indians came into the settlements 
near Whittaker's and Wells' Stations, evidently to steal horses and har¬ 
ness. Major Acquilla Whittaker raised a company of eight or ten men, 
Moses Boone among them, and followed. They overtook the Indians in 
a “beech bottom on the waters of Floyd's Fork," where they had stopped 
to cook. The men singled out Indians to pursue. Moses Boone was 
chasing one, who “treed" when he found he was about to be overtaken. 
Boone jumped from his horse and also “treed," both watching for a 
chance to get a shot at the other. Finally Boone saw his chance, shot 
and broke his Indian's arm, and a moment or two later Nathan Garret, 
another member of the pursuing party, succeeded in getting a shot which 
killed the Indian.

In the fall of 1787, Joseph Carman, Vincent Robbins, and Aaron 
VanCleve started off to hunt buffalo. When west of Drennon’s Lick 
they were attacked by Indians. Carman was captured, but Robbins and 
VanCleve escaped. As soon as they reached the settlements on Bullskin 
and Brashear Creeks, a party under the leadership of Robbins was raised, 
one of the men being Moses Boone. This party followed the Indians and 
found Carman’s body ^^shockingly mutilated,” it being dismembered. 
They gathered it together and took it back to Wells’ Station, his home, 
for burial, (c) 

On Sunday, the 23d of May, 1790, Moses Boone, John Kline, Mat¬ 
thew Smock, Captain James and Henry Hoagland (Kline and the Hoag- 
lands having guns), and Miss Betsy VanCleve(about 20 years old) were 
attacked as they returned from church near Boone’s old Station on 
Brashear’s Creek, when about one and one half miles from the meeting 
and in sight of a settlement. The attacking party consisted of six or 
seven Indians who had hidden behind logs. The Indians fired on them 
from about 30 paces distance without injuring any of the party, but the 
horses were frightened and threw Boone, Smock, and Miss VanCleve. 
The others tried to keep the Indians at bay, but were uusuccessful, and 
themselves had to retreat. All escaped with the exception of Miss Van¬ 
Cleve and Kline, who was shot. Smock was of heavy, clumsy build and 
a poor hand in an emergency or he might have helped Miss VanCleve 
on her horse, as he was near her, and enabled her to escape. However, 
he did nothing but get himself off safely. Miss VanCleve was captured, 
and a few minutes later another party returning from the same church 
found her body, tomahawked and scalped. Life was not extinct when 
she was found, but she died very soon after. She was a daughter of 
Ralph (or Rutliff) VanCleve, a brother of Mrs. Jane (VanCleve) Boone, 
and so was a cousin of Moses Boone, (b) 

On the 20th of December, 1786, on Brashear’s Creek in Jefferson 
County, Kentucky, Moses Boone was married to his cousin, Hannah 
Boone, daughter of Samuel and Jane (Hughes) Boone. 

He went with his father to settle in Indiana about 1805. In 1808, 
he was appointed a Judge of Harrison County, Indiana Territory, by 
Governor William Henry Harrison, and re-appointed by Governor Thomas 
Posey. He was also one of the three commissioners who directed the 
building of the first State House in Indiana, which is still standing in 
Corydon, Ind. 

In 1846, he was living near Manhattan, Putnam County, Indiana, 
and it was probably here he died in 1852.

140 . ISAIAH BOONE {Squire^; Squire^; George^), born 17 Nov., 1772 

Married-(name of wife unknown). 

Isaiah Boone, third child of Squire, Jr., and Jane (VanCleve) Boone, 
was born ^‘on Friday, about 4 o’clock in the morning,” in the Forks 
of the Yadkin, not far from Salisbury, N. C. 

As a very small boy, he was taken to Kentucky, when his parents 
moved there about 1775 or ’76, and was at the famous Siege of Boones- 
borough. He went with his parents in their various moves, and was 
with them when they settled Boone’s Station. 

When it was decided to abandon Boone’s Station in 1781, he, being 
a boy about nine years old, was put in the care of Captain Hall, as his 
father remained at the Station. 

On this first day (14th September, 1781), after leaving the fort they 
had a fight with the Indians which Judge Moses Boone, an older brother 
of Isaiah, designates as Boone’s Defeat. Beginning at the “13 mile tree,” 
which was eight miles from Linn’s Station and about twenty-one from 
Squire Boone’s, and extending to the “14 mile tree”, the Indians were 
lying in wait for them. About half way between these two “trees” was 
a stream called Long Run, which will be mentioned a little later. 

When attacked the men held the Indians in check long enough to 
cut the packs from the horses, and mount the women and children so 
that they might have a better chance to escape. For a mile the packs 
were scattered along the way. 

In the beginning of the fight, Isaiah Boone who was riding one of 
the pack horses dismounted and retreated with the others, quite likely 
taking a man’s part in the flight, for children in those days learned at a 
very early age to use a gun and help in defense. At the crossing of Long 
Run, Isaiah was keeping an Indian in check, although he had gotten 
his gun wet in crossing and it would not go off. A man by the name of 
George Yunt came to his aid, shooting the Indian and saying to Boone, 
“Now you dog, throw away your gun and clear yourself.” Isaiah hated 




(Generation 


143 


to lose his gun, but obediently threw it down and ran. While running 
he took off his shot pouch, which was a fine one, and was holding it in 
his teeth by a strap while he stripped off his coat. Dropping it accidentally 
he did not have time to stop to pick it up. Soon after he was put on a 
horse, and while using his three cornered hat, sent him by his brother 
Jonathan from Kaskaskia, dropped and lost that too. The loss of these 
three valued possessions was probably more serious to the boy than the 
actual danger he had been through. In this fight several were killed: 
a grown daughter of old Mr. Hansbury; Mrs. John VanCleve, a sister- 
in-law of Squire Boone^s wife, with two of her small children; and two or 
three children of Mrs. Holt, a widow. Rachael VanCleve (about 18) and 
one of her little sisters, daughters of John VanCleve, were taken prisoner 
but later were rescued unharmed. The night following this fight the 
Indians camped on the east bank of Long Run. 

Floyd^s Fork is about two miles from Long Run, and the battle 
which took place here on the following day (15 Sept.) is called Floyd’s 
Defeat. In this fight about nine were killed. As they were trying to 
escape across this stream Isaiah was but a few feet from Captain Hall, 
who saved his life by shooting the Indian who was reaching for Isaiah. 

(For further details of these two fights see the sketch of Squire 
Boone, brother of Daniel.) 

In 1787, he started with his father to make a settlement at Chick¬ 
asaw Bluffs, but finding it unsafe they went on down to New Orleans 
where they took Spanish protection and set up a gun-smith shop. Here 
they remained three years, Isaiah coming home some ahead of his father, 
but how is not known, though it was probably by boat up the Mississippi. 

In 1794, he and his brother, Enoch, both went on Wayne’s Campaign, 
in Bland Ballard’s Company, Isaiah as a sergeant. They both took 
part in the fight, being in the left wing, but they did not get into so 
much of the battle as some of the others, only about one-third of the 
company getting to fire off their guns. 

The time of his marriage, the name of his wife, and the time and 
place of his death are all unknown. 

In the fall of 1846 he was living near Mauckport, Indiana, so he died 
subsequent to that time.

141 . SARAH BOONE {Squire^; Squire^; George^), born 26 Sept., 1774; 
died 1847. (a) 

Married 1 March, 1790 or ’91, John Wilcox (born 6 Sept., 1766). 

Sarah Boone, fourth child and only daughter of Squire, Jr., and Jane 
(VanCleve) Boone, was born ‘^on Monday about 4 o’clock in the morn¬ 
ing,” (6) in the Forks of the Yadkin, N. C. As a child she moved to 
Ky. with her parents, and saw much of pioneer life. At the time of the 
Siege of Boonesborough she was only about four years old. When her 
parents moved to Louisville in 1779, she was then only about five. It 
is supposed that she went with them in all their various movings about. 
In 1790, when her father and mother went to St. Simon’s, Fla., for his 
health, Sarah and her three older brothers were left behind with relatives 
or friends, Jonathan, the eldest, at this time being in Kaskaskia, Illinois. 

In 1790 or ’91, when only a little over 15 or 16, she was married 
(c) in Jefferson Co., Ky., to John Wilcox, said to be a connection of the 
John Wilcox who married Daniel Boone’s sister Sarah. ‘‘They settled 
upon, surveyed and improved lands, patented in the name of Sarah 
Boone by her father. Squire Boone, four miles north of Shelbyville, 
Shelby County, Ky.” (d) 

John Wilcox died in Ky., after which his wife and children moved 
to Boone Co., Mo., where it is probable she died and was buried. 

Following is the known list of their children, but since we have 
no dates of their births, they are probably not given in the correct order.

142 . ENOCH MORGAN BOONE {Squire^; Squire^; George^), born 16 
Oct., 1777, died 8 Mar., 1862 (a) (or 8 Feb., 1862, according to Collins’ 
History of Kentucky). 

Married, 8 Feb., 1797, Eliza (Lucy?) Goldman (b. 1775; d. 1855). (a) 

Enoch Morgan Boone, (h) the fifth and youngest child of Squire and 
Jane (VanCleve) Boone, was born ‘‘on Tuesday, about ten o’clock in the 
afternoon (?),” “in a canebrake” (c) at Fort Boonesborough, Ky. His 
parents, and especially his mother, claimed that he was the first white 
male child born in Boonesborough. At least two white female children 
were born there before he was,—Elizabeth Hays, and a Miss Finley, who 
was living at Crab Orchard in 1795. (b) 

He was brought up to know no other life than the dangerous and 
hard one of the frontiersman, moving about with his parents from place 
to place, and being present at many Indian fights and sieges. 

When his father and mother went to Florida in May, 1790, for Squire’s 
health, Enoch was the only one of the five children taken along. He 
was then a lad of only 13. They started out in a wagon, with three horses 
and $200.00, travelled down through Crab Orchard and Cumberland Gap 
to the Yadkin (S. C.), where they stopped for a while with the Bryan, 
Wilcox, David and George Webb families, all relatives. Here they laid 
in a year’s supply of provisions before proceeding on their way, which 
led them down through South Carolina, Georgia, and on to the mouth 
of the Altamaha. From here they went to St. Simon’s Island, where 
they bought a lot in a little village called Frederika, and stayed about 
six months. Then they went higher up on the island where they bought 
four acres of land, on which was a small shanty. They built a new house, 
and made fine wages teaming and hauling rice and cotton for their neigh¬ 
bors. Here they lived for two years very comfortably—having plenty of 
sea fish, oysters, oranges and other foods. 

At the end of two years, or in the summer of 1792, Squire Boone’s 
wounds began to trouble him again, so they sold off all their holdings,— 
“property, team, cow, goats and other stock,” (6) and sailed for Philadel¬ 
phia. From there they went out into Berks County to visit friends and 
relatives. 

That fall (1792) Enoch started back to Kentucky alone. At Reading 
he met Ben Applegate and his family, who had a team and were also 
starting to Kentucky. Enoch joined them and helped Applegate drive 
the team to Pittsburgh. From there they went on a boat down the 
Ohio River to Limestone (Maysville), and Boone proved to be a better 
boatman than Applegate. They made this trip in about six days without 
seeing any Indians. Enoch stopped for a while at Point Pleasant with 
his uncle, Daniel Boone, from whom he obtained some bear meat. From 
there he went for a while to Jacob Boone’s, at Limestone, where he was 
treated very kindly, and then on to Cincinnati. From Cincinnati he went 
down to the mouth of the Kentucky River, and then across the country 





146

to Shelby County. Remember, at this time he was only between fifteen 
and sixteen years old. 

He became a soldier before he was seventeen, and in 1794 was on Wayne’s 
campaign under Bland Ballard, who, when Boone offered to go with him, 
agreed to take care of him, and did so as carefully as if he were Enoch’s 
father. From this time on Enoch took part in many Indian fights. 

In 1797, in Shelby County, Ky., he was married to Eliza Goldman, 
who may have borne the name Lucy also. Her descendants call her 
Eliza, while historians call her Lucy. Collins’ ‘‘History of Kentucky,” 
page 600, says, “He was married in Shelby County, Ky., 8 Feb., 1798 
to Lucy Galman.” 

In 1798 he rented Wells’ Station, of which he had gotten possession 
probably about the time of his marriage, to Joseph Bryan, the father-in- 
law of Daniel Boone, his uncle. 

He moved to Indiana at the same time his father did (1804-’05), 
and we find that from 1808-1816 he lived in Grassy Valley, Harrison 
County, Indiana (then Indiana Territory), and held a Captain’s com¬ 
mission from General William Henry Harrison, who was then Governor 
(c), which commission he received in 1805. (6) 

From 1810-1827 he engaged largely in boating down the Ohio and 
Mississippi Rivers. 

At some subsequent date he moved back to Kentucky, to Meade 
County, for on Mar. 10, 1829, his mother died at his home “at the mouth 
of Otter Creek, Kentucky.” (h) 

“On his wedding anniversary, 8 Feb., 1862” (c) he died aged 84, at 
the home of his son-in-law. Judge Collins Fitch, on the Ohio River, near 
Garnettsville, Meade County, Ky. 

He was a tall, spare man, nearly six feet in height; and a Baptist, 
All of his children with the exception of Jane Boone Fitch died prior to 
Aug. 1858.

G. Bertolett, 25 May, 1860, refers to a visit to the old Boone home:— 

“It is to be regretted that we shall not now find our venerable friend 
John Boone (son of Moses) in his accustomed place * * * But we find in 
his stead his estimable sister-in-law Mrs. Susan Boone, who does the honors 
of thp place in a most cordial and courteous way. We are soon cognizant 
that we are welcome, and much of what is here collected has been furnished 
by this intelligent lady in the shape of original documents and papers for 
our inspection.’’ 

The article, which is entitled “The Boone Family,” deals principally 
with the earlier generation.

No. 495 (b. 16 Jan., 1794; d. 4 July, 1820). He married 2nd, August,

statement regarding his descent from George Boone III. 

He was the richest and most influential man in the county; among 
his friends were Jonathan Jennings, Governor; John Tipton, Senator; 
Ratliff Boone, Representative in Congress, of Indiana; and Henry Clay, 
Senator from Kentucky. He was urged to go to Congress, but refused

fine brick house, which is still standing and owned by his son, Hiram C.

Boone 2d. He was a man of education and refinement. His pictures 
show a very striking resemblance to his distinguished cousin Col. Daniel 
Boone, a grand-niece of whom was his first wife. At the time Squire 
Boone, Jr., left Kentucky (about 1807), taking with him all of his own 
family and all of Samuel Boone’s, Hiram C. Boone moved to Indiana with 
the rest. In 1811 a Captain Smith was sent to Harrison County to raise 
a company of soldiers to go to the relief of Fort Harrison. Hiram Boone 
entered actively into the work of securing the men. When finally or¬ 
ganized the men objected to Captain Smith, who generously told them 
they might select their own captain, and that any one could offer who 
chose. Boone, who was then but a boy, stood for election. The men were 
drawn up, and instructed by Captain Smith, that at the command of 
‘‘March” they would line up with the man they wished to command 
them. Every soldier, save one—a relative of Smith—marched to Boone. 
Boone was commissioned Captain of the 1st Regiment of Militia of Ind¬ 
iana Territory, by William Henry Harrison, Governor and Commander 
in Chief, June 26, 1811. This service is officially known as “The Cam¬ 
paign of the Wabash.” (See Act of Congress, approved April 10, 1812, 
for the relief of the officers and soldiers.) February 27, 1813, he was 
commissioned Major of the 5th Regiment of the Militia of Indiana 
Territory; his service was that of fighting the Indian allies of Great 
Britain in the War of 1812. (See Act of Congress approved March 3, 
1813.) Commission signed by John Gibson, Acting Governor. April 
26, 1817, he was commissioned Colonel of the 5th Regiment of Militia 
of the State of Indiana. From then until his death he was always called 
Colonel Boone. Commission signed by Jonathan Jennings, Governor.

^ebentf) Generation 


171 


Married 1st, about 1816, Moody Grubbs (b. 1791; d. 26 July, 1837) 
son of John Grubbs and wife Sarah Hopkins, and|2nd, -John ^Tullis (d. 
14 May 1845). No children by second husband. 

She was first married at her father’s home near Elkton, Ky., and 
lived in Kentucky until her first nine children were born. She and her 
husband then moved to Illinois and located in Montgomery Co., near 
the present town of Hillsboro. Here their tenth and youngest child was 
born. Within three or four years after their removal to Illinois, Moody 
Grubbs died, leaving his wife with a large family of children and but 
slender resources. After her marriage to John Tullis she moved with 
him to a farm a few miles west of Hillsboro in Montgomery Co., Ill., 
where she remained until her children were grown. The house which they 
built on this farm has the unique distinction of never having had a death 
occur within its walls. It is still occupied (1921) by descendants of Moody 
and Cynthia Grubbs. Its present occupants, William Grubbs and his 
widowed sister, Mrs. Cynthia Stoddard, have among their house furnish¬ 
ings a tall grandfather’s clock and a cherry bureau which Moody and 
Cynthia Grubbs brought with them from Kentucky. During the last 
years of her life Cynthia (Boone) Grubbs made her home with her son, 
Samuel Moody Grubbs of Litchfield, Ill. She died there at the age of 
92, and is remembered by her grandchildren and great-grandchildren as 
a dainty, refined little woman who bore but little trace of the hardship 
and adventures which she must have lived through. 

Children:—

contracted there, probably in the dissecting room, the poisoning which 
caused his death in St. Louis. Was engaged to Miss Malissa Tullis,

and a niece of Ninian Edwards, first Governor of Illinois. (See Sketch of 
Edwards Family.) 

Higgason G. Boone was a man of fine natural ability, practical, 
prompt and judicious in the management of his worldly affairs, and a 
man of strong religious convictions. In 1833, the year he was married, 
he united with the Baptist Church of Elkton, Ky., and in this church 
held the offices of deacon and clerk for more than half a century. He 
represented Todd Co., in the State Legislature for two years, and except 
for this period of absence from home on official duty, his record of church 
attendance was unbroken. In 1883 he and his wife celebrated their 
Golden Wedding anniversary, surrounded by their children and grand¬ 
children. His wife, Martha Maria Boone, was a woman of splendid 
education and culture. She took much interest in genealogical matters, 
and carefully preserved and recorded the records of her husband's branch 
of the Boone family. She lived to be nearly ninety-four years old, so it 
is to her, as well as to the Boone family, that her children are indebted 
for their remarkable longevity. Of their nine children, all except the 
eldest, who was drowned in youth, were living in 1921.

316 . LEVI DAY BOONE {Squire^; Samuel^; Squire"^; George^), born 
8 Dec., 1808, at Lexington, Ky.; died 24 Jan., 1882, at Chicago, Ill. 

Married Mar., 1833, Louisa Matilda Smith, daughter of Theophilus 
Smith. 

In early life Levi Day Boone took up the study of medicine, and 
began his practice in that profession at Edwardsville, Ill. In 1836 he 
located in Chicago, where he established a medical practice and became 
interested in politics as well. He was alderman there for three terms, and 
although there was a large foreign element in Chicago, he was in 1855 
elected 19th mayor of Chicago on the Know-Nothing ticket. Shortly 
after he assumed office, the so-called ''Beer riots" occurred which marked 




174 


®:f)c Poonc Jfamilp 


a period in the turbulent history of Chicago, and which were due in part 
to Dr. Boone’s attempt to enforce the state temperance laws. 

During the Civil War Dr. Boone was arrested (because of his south¬ 
ern connections) and charged with helping the southern prisoners of Fort 
Donaldson to escape. He was finally cleared, and many personal letters 
were published showing that he had refused to move back to Kentucky 
among his ‘‘dearly beloved kinsmen” because his heart was with the 
northern cause, although his “loved ones” lived south. (From “The 
Leading Men of Chicago,” a rare volume in the art department of the 
Chicago Public Library.) (h) 

Dr. Boone was the first secretary of the Chicago Cook County 
Medical Society (founded 1836), and was its first president when in 1850 
it was reorganized and became the Chicago Medical Society. In 1853 
he was publisher of the “Christian Times.” When Chicago University 
was organized he was one of its incorporators. In 1852 he was president 
of the Merchants and Mechanics Bank, and was also extensively engaged 
in real estate and insurance. For many years he was at the bead of a 
life insurance company, and through that and his other activities amassed 
a considerable fortune. In spite of his many and diverse interests, he 
became a most successful physician and was particularly noted for his 
bravery during epidemics of contagious diseases. It was greatly re¬ 
gretted when he gave up his medical practice. 

“He was a kindly-mannered man, gentle and courteous to all, of 
perfect integrity, hospitable as became his southern origin, and beloved 
by all who knew him.” (a) A portrait of Dr. Levi Day Boone hangs 
in the library of the Historical Society of Chicago.

321. WILLIAM GRANT (Israel^; Elizabeth^ Boone; Squire^; George^), 
died 3 May, 1813. 

Married Miss — Moseby. 

In the War of 1812, William Grant enlisted as a private, but was 
soon promoted to the rank of Lieutenant. In the battle of Dudley's 
Defeat near Fort Meigs in Ohio (1-5 May, 1813) on the third day, 
which would be May 3rd, he was killed. In ‘‘Pioneer Families of Miss¬ 
ouri" is given this vivid description of his death:— 

“After the defeat and capture of the American forces, they were driven 
under guard into an enclosure, where the Indians began at once to rob them 
of their money, watches, etc. Grant still had his sword, which had not been 
taken from him, and was standing with it in his hand conversing with a 
friend, Capt. Micajah McGlenny, when an Indian came up and demanded 
the weapon. Grant turned to McGlenny and said, ‘They will kill us any¬ 
how, and I intend to sell my life as dearly as possible,' and dropping the point 
of his sword to the level of the Indian's breast, he plunged it through his body 
to the hilt, killing him in his tracks. The next instant Grant's body was 
pierced by a hundred bullets, and he fell dead at the feet of his friend. 
McGlenny waiS not hurt; was afterwards exchanged, and lived to be an old 
man."

347. ELIZABETH HAYS (Susannah^ Boone; Daniel^; Squire*; George^), 
born 12 June, 1776, at Fort Boonesborough in Ky.; died 3 Aug. 1828. (a) 
Married 1797 in Kentucky, Isaac Van Bibber (b. in Greenbriar Co., 
Va., 20 Oct., 1771; d. 30 Sept., 1840, in Montgomery Co., Mo.) (a) 
Another account gives his death as in 1836, at the home of his son-in- 
law, George Burt, at Williamsburg, Callaway Co., Mo., ‘‘his wife having 
died some time before.(6) See sketch of Van Bibber Family. 

Undoubtedly Elizabeth Hays was the first white child born in Ken¬ 
tucky. Statements in proof of this are found in several old papers pre¬ 
served by the State Historical Society of Wisconsin, in its Draper Col¬ 
lection of Manuscripts. One of these papers is a letter to Dr. Draper 
from Samuel Boone, nephew of Daniel Boone and hence a first cousin of 
Elizabeth's mother. A reproduction of this letter is shown facing this page. 
Another letter, written by Mrs. Sarah Hunter, daughter of Edward Boone 
and niece of Daniel, contains the following statement: 

“The first white child born in Kentucky was Elizabeth Hays, daughter 
of William Hays and granddaughter of Daniel Boone.'’ (c) 

In a statement of George Bryan of Bourbon Co., Ky., we find the 
following paragraph: 

“I always understood Boone, that as soon as they got the houses up in 
1775, he went back after his family." x x x x x x “When Boone came out, 
they got within four miles of the fort (Boone had put up a cabin or two at 
Boonesborough and then gone for his family). They were not able to reach 
the fort, except William Hays, whose wife was expecting to be confined. 
He took her on to th^ fort, and she was confined that night. This was the 
first white child born in Kentucky. This child Van Bibber afterwards 
married. Lived up here on the Kenawha, where Boone went and staid some 
time." (d) 

{There were probably no white families living in Ky. prior to that.) 


Elizabeth Hays as a very small child made a journey back to North 
Carolina with her parents, for it is recorded that when they returned to 
Kentucky in the spring of 1779, she was carried all the way back on 
horseback by George Bryan, a relative of her mother, (d) 

Isaac Van Bibber was the son of Isaac Van Bibber who was killed 
at the battle of Point Pleasant in 1774, as Captain of his Company. 
It is said that Isaac, Jr., was adopted and reared by Col. Daniel Boone, 
and at the early age of thirteen years acted as a scout against Indians 
in Virginia. During the Indian War he was a Major of Militia under 
Col. Boone. After his marriage in 1797 he went to Missouri with Nathan 
Boone, son of Daniel, and settled in Darst's Bottom, St. Charles Co., 
Mo. In 1815 he and his wife located at Loutre Lick, now in Montgomery 
Co., Mo. There he built a log house which was used as a tavern or inn, 
and which became a popular stopping place for the many travelers who

were on their way to new homes in Missouri. An account of this tavern 
and its history can be found in ^‘The Missouri Historical Review/^ Jan., 
1913, page 106. The tavern was still standing in July, 1917. 

I An interesting story of Isaac Van Bibber is also to be found in the 
‘^Missouri Historical Review,” which reads as follows: 

“Isaac Van Bibber was very eccentric. He omitted no opportunity 
to declare and enforce his belief that every six thousand years there was a 
recurrence of the same events in the world^s history and of course in the 
history of its inhabitants. He was active and persistent in the defence of 
this peculiar philosophy. 

“One morning three young Kentuckians, having spent the night at the 
tavern and having heard Van Bibber’s philosophy boldly declared, con¬ 
cluded to subject his professed faith to a business test. According they said, 
^Now, Mr. Van Bibber, you believe we will all be here again, just as we are 
now, six thousand years hence. To test your belief in this doctrine we propose 
to give you our joint note for the amount of our bills, at ten per cent interest, 
payable six thousand years after date.’ 

“For a moment Van Bibber was in an embarrassing dilemna, but soon 
recovering, he replied, ‘You are smart young fellows all the way from old 
Kaintuck, and I would at once accept your note and let you keep on, but I 
remember that all three of you were here six thousand years ago and left 
without paying your bills, and now I am afraid to trust you. So you will 
have to shell out.’ 

“And ‘shell out’ they did.” (e)

Lilburn W. Boggs was married first to Julia Ann Bent, daughter of 
Judge Silas Bent, by whom he had two sons, Angus and Henry. His 
second wife was Panthea G. Boone, by whom he had ten children. She 
was born in Greenup Co.^ Mo.,'^ and was the daughter of Jesse Boone, 
son of Daniel Boone. 

At the age of 18, Lilburn W. Boggs went to St. Louis, and was cash¬ 
ier of one of the first banks in that city. Later he engaged in merchandis¬ 
ing up and down the Mississippi River, and finally settled in Indepen¬ 
dence, Mo., Jackson Co. Was Lieut. Governor of State of Missouri and 
later (1836-’40) the Governor. During his term as governor there 
was trouble between citizens of Jackson Co., and some Mormons who 
had settled there. As Governor, Boggs was induced to call out the Mil¬ 
itia, and had the Mormons removed from the State. They settled in 
Illinois, founding the town of Nauvou, at which place their prophet and 
leader, Joe Smith, prophesied from their temple that the Ex-Governor 
of Missouri would die of violence inside of 12 months. As though in 
fulfilment of the prophesy. Governor Boggs nearly lost his life at the 
hands of an assassin a short time later. The Boggs home was in Inde¬ 
pendence, Mo., in which place a stranger appeared and hired out as a 
hostler. After familiarizing himself with the Ex-Governor’s habits and 
family residence, he slipped up one dark rainy evening in 1842 and shot 
through the window at Lilburn W. Bogg as he sat reading his paper 
after dinner. The other members of the family were still with their 
mother (Panthea G. Boone Boggs) in the dining room finishing the 
evening meal. While severely injured by the shot, L. W. Boggs recov¬ 
ered and lived for nineteen years. 

In 1846 he and his family emigrated to California, where he settled 
in the Sonoma Valley. He had expected to retire from public life, having 
held various public offices for thirty years, but was persuaded to accept 
the position of Alcalde of the Northern District of California under the 
U. S. Military Governor, Gen. Bennett W. Riley. 

Their descendants still live in California.

In the year 1818 he moved with his father’s family from Kentucky 
to Loutre Island, in what is now Montgomery County, Mo., where his 
father, William C. Boone, engaged in mercantile business. Young Hamp¬ 
ton Boone assisted his father for about two years. Meanwhile he began 
the study of law, but later gave up the idea of entering that profession. 
He gave much thought to religious matters, and having joined the church 
in 1828, he entered the ministry of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in 
which he continued as a local preacher until 1840. Having studied closely 
the religious tenets of the different denominations, his convictions led 
him to sever his relations with the Methodist Church and become a 
minister of the Christian Curch, in which denomination he continued 
for the remainder of his life. 

At that time and in new frontier countries, it was necessary for 
ministers of the gospel to seek additional means of providing for their 
own support. Hence we find Hampton L. Boone alternating between the 
pulpit and secular employment, and often doing service in both for years 
at a time. At one time when a young man he was employed as clerk 
under Capt. Whitmore, the Government agent appointed to make certain 
payments to the Indians. While thus employed he made several trips 
up and down the river. 

About 1832 he went to Fayette, Mo., and a year afterwards entered 
the mercantile business at that place, which he engaged in until 1840. 
Meanwhile he was appointed registrar of the land office at Old Franklin 
and later at Fayette, which position he held for about twelve years, and 
until the inauguration of President Harrison in 1841. In 1842 he was 
appointed clerk of the supreme court at Jefferson City, to which city he 
removed his family in 1844. He was clerk of the supreme court for about 
six years. For several years during his official term in Jefferson City, 
he was editor of the “Metropolitan,” a Democratic newspaper which under 
his editorship was the first paper in the state to take a stand against 
Thomas H. Benton. 

The winter of 1849-50 he spent in St. Louis, but on account of fail¬ 
ing health he returned to his old home, Fayette, in March 1850, resuming 
work in the Christian Ministry, until his death in 1851. Notwithstand¬ 
ing he led an active business life, he never lost sight of his duties as a 
minister, and his life and business relations followed the high principles 
which he preached from the pulpit, (a)

covered wagems, and camping nights by the roadside—a journey 
which took six months. With them they took Tillitha and Lillie,

761 . WILLIAM P. BOONE {Samuel^; SamueP; Samuel‘S; George’), 
born 12 Oct., 1813, in Boone Twp., Harrison County, Ind.; died 24 Jan., 
1875, in Louisville, Ky. 

Married Elizabeth Harney, daughter of Dr. John Milton Harney and 
granddaughter of Judge John Rowan, distinguished lawyer and statesman, 
by whom she was reared. 

William P. Boone was educated at Corydon, then the capital of 
Indiana, until his seventeenth year, when he began studying law, at the 
same time teaching a district school in Boone township. His legal edu¬ 
cation was completed under the tutelage of Judge William A. Porter 
of Corydon, a leading lawyer of Indiana. He was admitted to the bar 
Oct. 16, 1836, and was taken into partnership with Judge Porter. He 
later located in Louisville, Ky., and began practice there in 1836 as a 
member of the law firm of Thomasson and Boone, which firm was dis¬ 
solved when Mr. Thomasson was returned to Congress, and the firm of 
Boone and Clark continued the business. Subsequently William P. 
Boone and his relative Col. Charles D. Pennebaker formed a partner¬ 
ship and enjoyed a valuable practice until 1861, when both members 
were elected as Union candidates to the Legislature. In the Legislature 
both Mr. Boone and his partner were effective aids in securing Kentucky 
to the Union. 

At that time Boone was a member of the Union Democratic State 
Central Committee, a member of the board of Aldermen of Louisville 
and the president of a large Union club. He originated and organized 
one of the first, if not the very first. Union military bodies in the state, 
called the Louisville Home Guards. As Colonel of this organization, 
Boone was one of the committee which met Lieut. Nelson in Cincinnati, 
and received the arms furnished to them secretly by the United States 
Government. He was elected colonel of the first Regiment formed out 
of this Home Guard. A little later Col. Boone recruited a regiment for 
the Union forces, called the Twenty-eighth Kentucky. On Nov. 6, 1861, 
this regiment was assigned to duty in the Army of the Ohio, the name of 
which was afterwards changed to Army of the Cumberland. From this 
time until he was disabled in June, 1864, Col. Boone, whether as reg¬ 
imental, post or brigade commander; of infantry, mounted infantry or 
cavalry; rendered service which was conspicuously meritorious and which 
was commended by his superior officers. He resigned June, 1864, on 
account of physical disability, and returned to his family and business 
affairs in Louisville. 

Col. Boone was nevter an office seeker, yet served at the head of 
political organizations, as councilman, alderman, legislator, corporation 
council, and as member of the conventions of 1851 and 1870, which frapi- 
ed new charters for the city of Louisville. He was a man of fine presence, 
very tall and straight, with broad shoulders and soldierly bearing. He 
was an open, fearless and courteous gentleman who attracted the con-

©gJjtf) Generation

Samuel Moody Grubbs wa^ born not long after his parents moved 
to Illinois from Kentucky, being the youngest of ten children and the 
only one born in Illinois. When he was only two years of age his 
father died, leaving his mother with a family of children to care for 
alone; so Samuel Moody Grubbs, after receiving his education at Hills¬ 
boro, began at an early age to make his own way in the world. His 
first position was with the mercantile business of the Hon. William Brewer. 
He boarded at the home of his employer, whose daughter Mary he 
afterward mmrried. 

In 1856 he went to Litchfield, Ill., a few miles from Hillsboro, and 
took a position in the store of McWilliams and Paden, but returned to 
Hillsboro within a few months and there entered the drug and mercan¬ 
tile business. In 1865 he again went to Litchfield, which from that time 
on was his permanent home. He became a member of the firm of Brewer, 
Seymour and Co., bankers. The firm later became Brewer and Grubbs; 
then S. M. Grubbs and Co.; and in Jan., 1889, was organized as the First 
National Bank of Litchfield. Mr. Grubbs was the president of this bank 
until 1914, when he retired from active business. 

Politically he was always an active and ardent Republican. He was

white child born west of the Missouri River. 

Married James Estill (d. in Calif.), son of Benjamin Estill and his 
wife Anna Claughnaugh, originally of Ky., but who settled in Boone 
Co., Mo. (a) 

James Estill and wife settled on Loutre Creek, Montgomery Co., 
Mo., a few miles from Van Bibber Tavern. 

After his death in California, his widow lived in 1851 in St. Charles 
Co., Mo., about 12 miles southwest of Col. Nathan Boone^s. (6)

Married Cyrenus Cox, of New York State. He was a carpenter by 
trade, and went to Missouri by way of the Ohio River from some point 
near Cincinnati. In company with a man named McFarlane, a black¬ 
smith, he started out for Booneville, Mo. On the way they stopped over 
night at Isaac Van Bibber’s tavern. Van Bibber was erecting a new 
building, and being sadly in need of a carpenter, he persuaded Cox to 
remain and assist him with the work. Cox did so, and later married Van 
Bibber’s daughter Fanny (Frances), at about the time the new building 
was completed. By that time, it is said, Cox’s clothes were so badly 
worn out that he walked to St. Louis, ninety miles away, to buy new clothes 
in which to be married. He was accompanied by McFarlane, who had 
also remained at Loutre Lick. After his marriage Cox built a home 
near Van Bibber’s tavern, where they lived until their children were 
all grown. Cox never went to Booneville, his original destination. 

Children:— 

4*2205 James Estill Cox.

William Boone Wilson, son of William and Matilda (Boone) Wilson, 
was a man of rare qualitiefe. In private life he was thoughtful, polite, 
and courteous; in business, energetic, progressive, and eminently successful; 
in religion, a Baptist. He thought nothing that might better his fellow 
men, and advance his church, too. much for him to undertake. Just 
before the Civil War, Dr. Campbell, the President of Georgetown College, 
addressed the association, of which the Eminence Baptist Church is a 
member, for an endowment fund of $1,000.00. Although he made the 
appeal in person he failed to secure the amount. He returned home with 
Mr. Wilson, downcast and discouraged, talking far into the night of plans 
and needs. The next morning Mr. Wilson asked Dr. Campbell to give 
him a day or two to look around. At the end of that time he had se¬ 
cured from the Eminence Church alone the amount asked of the whole 
association. In early life he was a successful merchant in Shelbyville, 
Ky. His health failed and he moved to a farm near Eminence in 1847, 
but in a year or two he was back in mercantile business. He had es¬ 
tablished himself in the eyes of the community as the best business man 
there, and when the Deposit Bank was organized in 1867, he was made 
its Cashier, which office he held until he retired from business in 1900. 
Almost every progressive business man in Eminence owed his financial 
or moral success to William Boone Wilson^s aid at the critical period of 
his career. At the age of eighty-six he died, loved and honored in the 
community where he spent the best years of his life.

(d. 1901.) 

He was born in Kentucky and moved to Texas. At the time of the 
Civil War he joined the Confederate Army, was captured and in prison 
at New Orleans for several months. Probably was exchanged, for we 
find that some time after his sister Minerva and her husband, Gen. 
“Dick’’ Williams, had gone back to Ky., he married Mrs. Elizabeth 
Hunt-Kay, and went to Ky. They took with them her daughter Lulu 
Kay, and all of his children except Tillitha and Lillie, who had gone with

their Aunt Minerva, and the son Overton, who had joined the Confederate 
Army. His father, George Washington Stoner, Sr., was living in Mont¬ 
gomery Co. (Ky.), and when the War became severe and feeling ran high, 
Michael L. and some of his family had to be sent to Va. through the 
mountains by carriage. In the party were Michael L. Stoner, his wife, 
her daughter Lulu Kay, two of his children, Lillie and Nannie, and the 
negro driver. It is probable they remained in Va. until the close of the 
War, as Ky. was much debated country. Michael L. Stoner died and 
was buried in Texas where he has many descendants living today.

He settled on a farm about midway between Mt. Zion and Macon, 
Ill. During the Civil War he served in the Confederate Army under 
Gen. Zollecoffer, and many interesting and laughable incidents of his

the one of his chasing a Union soldier into his own lines, and then re¬ 
turning to his own (Confederate), during one engagement.

He, more than any other member of the family, inherited the Boone 
love of hunting and adventure. He was once heard to say, “I’d rather

lived.” It was he who visited, near the end of the Civil War, “Mike” 
Stoner’s grave near Monticello, Wayne Co., Ky.

1404. WILLIAM MYRTLE BOONE {Squire’’; Moses^; Squire^; Squire*; 
George^), born 30 May, 1822; died after 1908, in Boone Co., la. 

Married 1841, Nancy Parker (d. 1896), a native of Kentucky. 

William Myrtle Boone was born and reared in Putnam Co., Ind. 
He remained at home with his parents, helping with the work, until he 
became of age, when he took charge of the home place and farmed it 
for ten years. He was married in Putnam Co., in 1841, to Miss Nancy 
Parker, a native of Ky., and ten years later, in the fall of 1851, moved to 
Iowa, settling near old Boonesboro. He bought a claim of 240 acres, 
which he later entered from the Government and secured his title. In 
1853 he traded this for a farm of 160 acres in Worth Township, in order 
to be near his parents and look after them. This farm he developed 
into one of the best in the County. Here he continued to live until 
1896, when his wife died. He had already divided a large part of the 
farm among his children, and now he rented out the rest, making his 
home for the balance of his life with his children. In early life he voted 
with the old Whig party, and when it broke up, he joined the new Re¬ 
publican party from which he never wavered. In 1908, at the age of 85, 
he had then lived for 56 years in Boone County, which he had seen grow 
and develop from a “barren, uninhabitable prairie, into one of the rich¬ 
est and most prosperous agricultural districts in the world,and the town 
of Boone grow from a mere hamlet into one of the most thriving cities 
of Iowa.

George W. Morris. 

He was reared in Louisville, where he attended school until his 
sixteenth year, when he entered the University of Indiana at Blooming¬ 
ton, Ind. When the call to war was sounded he left school in June, 
1861, to take part in the stirring activities of that period. He returned 
to Louisville and joined the “Boone Guards’^ of that city, so named in 
honor of his father. Col. William P. Boone. He soon progressed to a 
lieutenancy, and with his company responded to the call of General 
Anderson early in September, 1861, when the Union State of Kentucky 
was invaded by Confederate forces and the capture of Louisville threaten¬ 
ed. Later he joined the 28th Kentucky Regiment, of the Army of the 
Cumberland, and for his efficiency was rapidly promoted until he reached 
the rank of full Colonel on July 5, 1864, being at that time only twenty 
years of age. He served with great distinction throughout the war 
taking part in the battles of Chickamaugua, Lookout Mountain, Mission, 
Ridge, Graysville, Ringgold, Pine Mountain, Franklin, Nashville, and at 
Kenesaw Mountain, Georgia, in 1864, when he was severely wounded. 
He was breveted by the President “for gallant and meritorious service’^ 
and was mustered out in June, 1866, having been in military action since 
1861. 

After his army service terminated Col. John Rowan Boone studied 
law, and in 1869 began practice in partnership with his father. After

Their residence is in Washington, D. C. Mr. Douglass is a United 
States Surveyor with offices at Sante Fe, New Mexico, his work being 
largely in that locality. He was appointed United States Cadastral 
Engineer, on July 1, 1818. 

William Boone Douglass was a graduate of the School of Law of 
Georgetown University, from which he received the degree of Master 
of Laws in 1888; and was admitted to the bar of the Supreme Court of 
Indiana, and to the bar of the Supreme Court of the United States. 

On August 14th, 1909, Mr. Douglass, then Examiner of Surveys 
of the General Land Office, discovered the World’s greatest natural 
bridge, in southern Utah, which he named “The Rainbow Natural Bridge.” 

Upon his recommendation it was created a national monument by 
President Taft, and the pen with which the President signed the proc¬ 
lamation was presented to Mr. Douglass. In the government publica¬ 
tion “General Information Regarding the National Monuments,” Gov. 
Printing Press, 1917, page 1, he is officially credited with the discovery 
of this great bridge, which Theodore Roosevelt called one of the world’s 
greatest wonders. 

One adventure which Mr. Douglass had upon the occasion of this 
discovery, was a capture by Indians; an experience not uncommon among 
the early Boones, but very rare in the present generation. Ac¬ 
companied by an Indian guide, Jim, he attended a secret midnight dance 
by the Navajo Indians, although the guide had tried to restrain him from 
going. A party of Paiute Indians were visitors at the dance, and upon 
discovering that a white man was a spectator they were greatly incensed 
at his intrusion upon the sacred ceremony. The Paiutes captured Mr. 
Douglass and planned to take his life, but were diverted from their pur¬ 
pose by the Indian guide Jim, who told them that Mr. Douglass was in the 
service of the United States and that his death would bring trouble upon 
them. After considering the matter from this point of view, his captors 
finally released him. 

In New Mexico and elsewhere Mr. Douglass has conducted extensive 
scientific explorations, and has proven himself to be an archaeologist 
of much ability. He has made a particular study of the prehistoric 
homes of the Tewa and other Pueblo Indians of New Mexico, and the 
results of his research on this subject have been published by the govern¬ 
ment and by scientific associations. Some of his archaeological writings 
are; “Structural Orientation of Pre-Historic Indian Pueblos and Shrines”; 
“A World-Quarter Shrine of the Tewa Indians”; “Notes on the Shrines 
of the Tewa and other Pueblo Indians of New Mexico”; “The Land of 
the Small House People.” 

He is a member of the International Congress of Americanists, and 
is General Secretary of the National Park Association of New Mexico, 
an organization which has for its object the formation of a vast national 
park in the southwest for the preservation of its many natural beauties.

its cliff-dwellings and other archaeological wonders. From '^The New 
Mexico Journal of Education/^ March, 1916, we quote Mr. Douglass^ 
own words on this subject:— 

we are ever to know our country or its earliest people, here is the 
field where we must learn it. The great universities of the east, with their 
great wealth and their accumulated libraries, will overshadow us save^ in 
one thing; all must come to New Mexico to study mankind. The creation 
of this proposed national park is a national duty; not for the benefit of the 
United States alone, but rather as our contribution to the University of 
the World.”

no chance to get ‘‘over sea” service, he secured a transfer to the 
Chemical Warfare Service, as he was specializing in chemistry at 
Cornell University, at the time of his enlistment. (His military ser¬ 
vices are recorded in the Cornell Class Book of 1920.) He was an in¬ 
structor in the use of gas masks and the manufacture of gas bombs, 
having been given a special course of training in these subjects. He 
was listed for over-sea service when the war closed, and honorably 
discharged, 23 Dec., 1918. He will be graduated from Cornell 
University in 1922. March 30, 1921, he was elected to Al-Djebar, an

3817 Reuben Brent Hutchcraft, Jr., b. 15 Dec., 1886; d. 7 Nov., 1918. Cap¬ 

tain Co. K., 166th Infantry, 42nd (Rainbow) Division. He was a 
graduate of both Transylvania College (formerly Kentucky Uni¬ 
versity), and Harvard University, in law. Practiced law in Paris, Ky. 
In 1915 became a member of the faculty of the University of Ky.; 
was twice elected to the Ky. State Legislature. Resigned as member 
of State Tax Commission to enter U. S. Army in 1917. Commissioned 
First Lieut, and sent overseas in Sept., 1917. Served in every battle 
in which the Rainbow Division participated and was never absent 
from his command until the date of his death, when he was killed 
leading an attack on Sedan. He was first buried at La Neuville a 
Maire, later removed to the United States National Cemetery near 
Beaumont, Ardennes, France, and still later brought home and on 
Mar. 27,1921, buried at his home, Paris, Ky., with full military honors. 
Capt. Hutchcraft was not a tall man, and by a strange coincidence 
the men who served under him were all small of stature. His com¬ 
mand soon came to be lovingly known as the “Boy Scouts," and never 
failed to do their share in every task assigned them.

1879, were mostly spent by him in farming, fighting grasshoppers, hunt-

ing buffalo for their pelts, and in the intervals freighting between Sidney, 
Neb., and the Black Hills. In the spring of 1875, when on the verge of 
starvation, as Mr. Henton himself expressed it, he set out on foot across 
a wild, trackless country for North Platte City, 110 miles northward, in 
search of work. Here he joined a government' expedition as teamster 
and assisted in building Fort Sheridan on the site of the Spotted Tail 
Indian Agency, on the boundary between Nebraska and Dakota. In 
1879, Mr. Henton settled down on a farm near Danbury, Neb., which he 
had homesteaded at an earlier date, and where he now (1904) lives with 
his family. The land has been added to until the property is a handsome 
one, abundant success having attended the owner’s business of farming and 
stock-raising. Mr. Henton was twice elected County Treasurer.

Married 16 Sept., 1890, Mary Cassell Gregg, daughter of Samuel 
and Maria A. (Bryant) Gregg, pioneers of Missouri. 

Mr. Crump’s residence is in Independence, Mo. He is vice presi¬ 
dent of the Kansas City Title and Trust Company of Kansas City, Mo., 
and in that city is considered without a superior in the matter of adjust¬ 
ing complex title problems. 

For many years he has devoted his leisure hours to the study and 
collection of data on his illustrious ancestor, Daniel Boone, and his 
descendants, sparing no labor and expense to obtain all available infor¬ 
mation on that subject. The valuable result of this careful and thorough 
research he has kindly contributed to this book, preparing for it the in¬ 
teresting biographical sketch of Daniel Boone which appears on page 561. 
Mr. Crump insists, however, that he is not an historian or biographer, 
making no claim to being other than a “title man.” Being interested in 
his family history, and a great admirer of Daniel Boone, his object has 
been to collect and preserve for posterity, all records of the sturdy old 
Pioneer and his descendants. In this he has most admirably succeeded.

and through his courtesy we are able to present in this volume much 
heretofore unpublished information on that subject. 

The following is from a sketch of Mr. Crump^s life which appears 
in the ‘‘Centennial History of Missouri, 1820-1921,’^ Vol. III. 

“Jesse Procter Crump pursued his education in the public schools of 
his home county and began his business career as a boy in the abstract 
office of John A. Sea at Independence, Missouri. His characteristic indus¬ 
try and ability soon won him recognition as the best abstractor in that city. 
He has been active in the same line throughout the intervening years until 
he is without doubt one of the best title men in Kansas City. In 1902 he 
became identified with the title business in this city and in 1915 assisted 
in the organization of the Kansas City Title and Trust Company, which 
was formed through the consolidation of five abstract companies. It is 
capitalized for seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and was in¬ 
corporated in 1915, since which time Mr. Crump has been the vice president. 
He is also the secretary of the Fidelity Savings Trust Company of Kansas 
City, and is connected with various other financial and commercial in¬ 
terests which place him in a prominent position in business circles. Nature 
endowed him with keen intellectual force and he has used his talents wisely 
and well, his faithfulness and industry featuring prominently in the attain¬ 
ment of success in his chosen line. 

In 1890 Mr. Crump was married to Miss Mary C. Gregg, daughter of 
Samuel and Maria A. Gregg, pioneers of Missouri. *♦♦♦♦*♦♦ 
Mrs. Crump is a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, and 
is very active in charitable and social service work. Mr. Crump turns to 
hunting and fishing for recreation. He belongs to the City Club, to the 
Real Estate Board, and is a member of the Palestine Commandery, No. 17, 
Knights Templars, at Independence, Mo., where he resides. Both he and 
his wife are very active in the Christian Church, doing all in their power 
to promote its growth and extend its influence. Mr. Crump is a musician 
of much natural ability who possesses a fine and highly cultivated voice. 
He has long been a choir singer and is much sought for solo work. He is a 
gentleman of broad and liberal culture, well descended and well bred, whose 
high character is indicated by his hosts of friends among the leading residents 
of Kansas City.’^

Tenn., and Reverend E. F. Boone, 414 W. 3rd St., Fort Worth, Tex.) 

Benjamin^ Boone (Elder) was born in North Carolina about 1760; 
died in Tennessee about 1837-40; married 1st, Mary Wilson; 2nd, Rebecca

and wife Elizabeth Dagley. Tradition points strongly towards this being 
Jonathan, the brother of Daniel Boone. Benjamin Boone had a sister 
Sarah (Sally) Boone, who married John Frost, grandson of General John 
Frost of the Revolution. Sarah's grandson, Elder John Ebenezer Frost, 
recorded that she (Sarah) was a niece of Daniel Boone.

FAMILY OF CATHERINE ROSANNA BOONE (COULTER). 

(Data furnished by Mr. J. C. Coulter, 1516 Richland Ave., Columbia, 
S. C.) 

Catherine^ Rosanna Boone, born in Pennsylvania within or near the 
period 1730-40, died in Lincoln County, North Carolina about 1813; mar¬ 
ried Martin Coulter. She was probably a daughter of Joseph Boone (No. 
6), (son of George Boone III) and wife Catherine. The following evidence 
of this connection exists:— 







'476 


®f)E Poone jFamilp 


An old piece of time-worn paper written by Catherine’s son, Martin 
Coujter Jr., and bearing the date June 6, 1846, is preserved by descend¬ 
ants. It reads:— 

“My father was Martin Coulter. He came to this country from Ger¬ 
many in 1750. My mother was Catherine Rosanna Boone, cousin of Daniel 
Boone—Squire’s Daniel. Brothers John and Philip, sister Catherine.” 
(Signed) Martin Coulter. 

Because of Catherine Rosanna Boone’s early date of birth (her first 
child born in 1759) she was probably a grandchild of George Boone III 
and thus a first cousin of Daniel Boone, rather than a member of a later 
generation. Record has been found of the children of all of Daniel Boone’s 
uncles except those of the uncle Joseph (born 1704), and not one of this 
long list of cousins bore the name Catherine. Therefore, if Catherine 
Rosanna Boone were a first cousin of Daniel Boone, her father could have 
been no other than Joseph. In addition to this evidence we have the 
significant fact of the Christian names used in this branch of the family. 
Catherine is not a name commonly used among the Boones of that period, 
but the wife of Joseph Boone, son of George Boone III, bore that name. 
It can then be reasonably supposed that Catherine Rosanna Boone was 
named for a mother Catherine. Martin and Catherine Rosanna (Boone) 
Coulter had a daughter also named Catherine, who named her first son 
Joseph Boone Lowrance, presumably for his great-grandfather. All of 
these facts indicate descent from Joseph and Catherine Boone, and while 
no record of Joseph Boone’s children has been found, there seems little 
doubt that one of them was this Catherine Rosanna (Boone) Coulter. 

Martin^ Coulter (originally Kolter) was born in Germany and emi¬ 
grated to America, landing at Philadelphia September 26, 1749, on the 
Ship Dragon, George Spencer, Master. (Rupp’s Collection of Names of 
German, Swiss and Other Immigrants in Pennsylvania, pages 211-212). 
The date of his marriage to Catherine Rosanna Boone is not known, but 
may be approximated by the date of the birth of their eldest child, Feb. 
11, 1759. The first known record of his name in North Carolina is found 
in a Land Grant from King George III to Martin Coulter dated April 
-, 1765. 

In the Colonial Records of North Carolina, Vol. 22, page 722, his 
name is found on a “committee of Defense” (15 names), which met June 
12th, 1779, “to consult on some plan to defend our frontier from the 
enemy” (meaning the Indians). On page 425 of the Index appears— 
“Coulter Family, Pioneers,” Vol. 8, pages 753 and 756. These refer¬ 
ences are under the general heading—“Early German Reformed Settle¬ 
ments in North Carolina.” Martin Coulter was a member of the German 
Reformed Church, and he and his sons were active in its establishment 
in the then frontier territory. When the state was invaded by Cornwallis 
in 1780, he went to the front, serving three months in Captain James

FAMILY OF JACOB.BOONE OF MAYSVILLE, KY. 

Jacob^ Boone, born in Berks Co., Pa., 15 Aug., 1754; died at Mays- 
ville, Ky., 4 May, 1827, in his 73rd year. (Draper Mss. IS 33,34,40,44.) 
Married Mary DeHart (b. 10 Oct., 1753; d. 30 July, 1828). 

It was stated by Jacob Boone’s daughter Mrs. Nicholson, in 1858, 
that her father was a son of Joseph Boone. (Draper Mss. IS 33.) He is 
referred to by historians as a cousin or ‘^favorite cousin” of Daniel 
Boone, with whom he wa^ closejy associated in Kentucky. Naturally we 
might infer that he was t^etefore a son of Daniel’s uncle Joseph Boone 
(No. 6), son of George Boone III, but this seems highly improbable 
because of the discrepancy in their ages, the first Joseph Boone having 
been born in 1704 (see page 24). Jacob Boone was more probably the 
son of a Joseph Boone of Berks Co., Pa., who died prior to 1779,* leaving 
a widow and several children, several of whom were minors at the time. 
In the records of the Orphan’s Court of Berks Co., Pa., are found entries 
to the following effect:— 

“Orphan’s Court, May 7, 1783. Petition of Jacob Boone, eldest son 
and heir at law of Joseph Boone pt Exeter, yeoman, deceased; that his father 
lately died intestate, leaving a widow (Elizabeth) and ten children, to wit,: 
the petitioner, Joseph Boone, Thomas, Ovid, Abner, Johab, Ann, Catherine, 
Sarah, and Hannah, several of whom are yet in their minority.” 

The widow, Elizabeth, had previously filed petition in May, 1779, 
regarding the estate of her deceased husband Joseph Boone, and again in 
1783 she petitioned court for a guardian to be appointed for her children, 
three of whom were under fourteen at that time, (a) 

If Jacob Boone of Maysville, Ky., was a son of the above Joseph 
Boone who died prior to 1779, it is quite possible that he was the son 
of an earlier marriage of Joseph, and not of the wife Elizabeth who had 
young children in 1783, at which time our subject Jacob Boone was 
twenty-nine years old and had a wife and children. The Quaker records of 
Berks Co., Pa., reveal the fact that a Joseph Boone, Jr. was called to 
account in 1751 for having married contrary to regulations. This might 
have been a first marriage of the above Joseph Boone, his second marriage 
being to Elizabeth who was mother of the minor children at his death. 
It at least seems reasonable to suppose that the Joseph Boone whose 
estate was settled in Orphan’s Court was a son of Joseph Boone, son of 
George Boone III, but lacking the will of the first Joseph, or any record 
of his children upon which to hang this supposition, it is impossible to 
state definitely that this was the case. Nor is it possible to say positively 
that Jacob Boone of Maysville, Ky., was the one who filed the petition 
in the Orphan’s Court in Pennsylvania, although it seems most probable, 

*The estate of one .Joseph Boone was administered to a widow Elizabeth Boone, May 10, 
177t'.—Berks County, Pa. Wills.

especially as the brothers who accompanied him to Kentucky were named 
Thomas and Ovid. 

Jacob Boone lived in Pennsylvania until 1785, when he removed 
with his family to Kentucky. Sometime prior to that time Daniel Boone 
had visited Berks County and had induced Jacob and his brothers Ovid 
and Thomas to go to Kentucky. Accordingly in the fall of 1785, the 
three brothers, having sold their farms, started with their families to 
the new country where Daniel Boone was already so much at home. On 
the Monongahela River, at the mouth of the Sewickly, they wintered and 
built a boat, in which they embarked in the spring of 1786 and des¬ 
cended the Ohio River unmolested to the site of Limestone, Ky., where 
they arrived the eleventh of May, 1786. (Draper Mss. 1 S 33, 34, 40, 
44, a statement of Mrs. Annah Nicholson.) 

After reaching Kentucky, Jacob Boone and his brothers helped 
Daniel Boone lay out the town of Limestone (now Maysville) on the Ohio 
River. (6) and (c) The place was used as a trading post for parties 
going up and down the river, and also later as a starting point for jour¬ 
neys by boat to Missouri. For a time Daniel Boone carried on a little 
business of flat-boat hauling from this point. 

From Maysville, then called Limestone, Ovid Boone, brother of Jacob, 
went on into Bourbon County, Ky., and Thomas, the other brother, 
eventually settled in Ohio, where he died at Round Bottom, a few miles 
above Cincinnati. (Draper Mss. 1 S.) Jacob Boone, however, continued 
to live at Maysville until his death, evidently not sharing the roving 
spirit of his kinsmen. He built a house on Front Street, now known as 
Limestone Street, which was still standing in 1921. In this house he and 
his wife lived until his death. He often went out on scouting trips, 
and was a quarter-master of militia, furnishing grain for St. Clair's 
and Wayne's troops. He kept a tavern and ferry at Maysville. 

After his death, his widow went to live with her daughter and son- 
in-law, Ann and Capt. F. Nicholson, at whose house in Maysville she 
died. Quaint old funeral invitations of Jacob Boone and his wife are 
preserved among the family heirlooms.

FAMILY OF JEREMIAH BOONE 

(From ‘‘The Boones in America/’ by Dr. R. N. Mayfield, a small 
booklet giving some early history of the family; and data furnished by 
Mrs. M. A. Thomas of Jasonville, Ind.) 

Jeremiah^ Boone was born in Pennsylvania, 29 Feb., 1760; died in 
Lawrence County, Indiana, 10 June, 1832. He married in Lincoln County, 
Ky., Joyce Nevel (born in Virginia; died in Lawrence County, Ind., 
26 June, 1861, aged 93 years, 1 mo., and 12 days) who went to Kentucky 
with her parents when eleven years old. 

Dr. Mayfield says in the book above-mentioned:— 

“I have failed after careful search to find the father of Jeremiah Boone, 

born in Pennsylvania, Feb. 29th, 1760; died June 10th, 1832. Am told that 

his father’s name was Solomon, but I cannot verify the same.” 

This is strengthened by the statement of Jeremiah’s descendant Mrs. 
M. A. Thomas of Jasonville, Ind., who says that the father of Jeremiah 
Boone was Solomon Boone, and further states that she is not familiar 
with Dr. Mayfield’s book. 

In 1785 Jeremiah Boone went to Kentucky, where he bought a farm 
on July 1, 1800, from G. Stepp, on Pittman Creek, five miles northeast 
of Somerset and two and one-half miles east of Science Hills. On this 
farm stands a pear tree seventy feet high which was plhnted by Jeremiah 
Boone while residing there over a hundred years ago. Later he removed 
to Lawrence County, Ind., where his son Noah had gone previously. 
Jeremiah took up land there and remained in Indiana until his death. 

Children:— 

1 * Sarah Boone, married Isaac Wagoner. They went to Lawrence Co., Indiana, in Feb., 
1817, with her brother, Noah Boone. 

2 * Elijah Boone, died 184-; married Jennie Wagoner. Children:—

FAMILY OF JESSE BOONE 

(Data furnished by Mrs. J. Clarence Rudisell, Jessup, Ga.) 

In John Preston Arthur’s “History of Western North Carolina” we 
find mention of three Boones, brothers and sister, who were named 
Jesse, Israel, and Anna (p. 181 ). The name of their father is not 











®inbctcrmmcti Connettiong 


491 


given, although it is stated that they were nephews and niece of Daniel 
Boone. The above history gives the following information regarding 
Anna and Jesse Boone;— 

Anna Boone, sister of Jesse and Israel, married William Coffee. 
She lived to be nearly 100 years old. Had a grandson Patrick Coffee, 
who built a house on Mulberry Creek, Caldwell Co., N. C., in 1877, at 
which time Anna (Boone) Coffee was living, and talked to the man build¬ 
ing the house (p. 84-85). 

Jesse Boone, brother of Anna, is mentioned as having lived four 
miles from SchulPs Mills apd two miles from Kelsey Post Office, Wau- 
tauga Co., North Carolina. The house is no longer standing, but the 
chimney foundation is still shown as his. There is also record of a 
Jesse Boone having lived just west of the Blue Ridge one mile west of 
Kelsey P. 0. on Boone’s Fork of Wautauga River. On 8 July, 1823, 
Jesse Boone conveyed to William and Alexander Elrod for S600, 350 
acres of land on Planner’s Fork of New River. (Deed registered in 
Book “M,” page 391 of Ash Co., N. C.; recorded in 1841.) Jesse Boone 
married Sarah McMahan (p. 180). 

Jesse Boone, according to his great-grandson or Smith Coffee (b. 
1832 in Caldwell Co., N. C.), had three daughters; one of these, named 
Celia Boone, married Buck Craig; another^ Hannah Boone, married Smith 
Coffee; and the third is not named. Smith Coffee moved to Cherokee 
Co., in 1838, and settled on Hiwassee River four miles above Murphy, 
after which he moved to Peach Tree Creek, where he died a year later 
(1839), his family returning to Caldwell. Smith Coffee had a son Smith 
Coffee (b. 1832), who returned in 1858 to Cherokee and lived on a farm 
adjoining that of George Hays on Valley River. Here he had a fight 
with Hays concerning a sow, just before the Civil War. Nevertheless 
when the war began he joined Hays’ Company, which became Co. “H” 
of the 2nd N. C. Cavalry (p. 84-85). 

From this point on the family can be traced through the records 
of an old Family Bible owned by Mrs. William Hooper of Cleveland, Ga., 
from which Bible the following table was compiled. In this old record 
the name is spelled Coffey, instead of Coffee, as above. 

Hannah^ Boone (probably the dau. of Jesse Boone), m. Smith 
Coffey, and their children were:— 

V Morgan Coffey, m. a Miss Day. 

2® Squire Coffey. 

3* Lee Coffey.

Stevenson had the following children:— Mary, who married Athen Coffey; Susan, 
unm.; Josiah; Nicholas, killed in the Civil War, 1861; Henry; Thomas; William; 
Michael, Jr., killed in Civil War, 1861.)

FAMILY OF JOHN BOONE, NEPHEW OF DANIEL 

(Taken entirely from the report of his pension record by the Bureau 
of Pensions, Department of the Interior) 

John Boone, b. in York Co., Pa., abt. 1755; d. 17 July, 1835; m. 
1787 or 1788, in Augusta Co., Va., Elizabeth Alford (d. 15 Feb., 1841). 

The pension report of John Boone states that he was a nephew of 
Daniel Boone. Consequently he must have been a son of either Israel 
or Jonathan Boone, as DaniePs other brothers had no sons John. At 
the date of his enlistment he resided in York Co., Pa.; enlisted in 1777 
and served three years under Capt. Spanzler, Pa.; engaged in the Battle 
of Camden. On 20 Aug., 1833, when a resident of Monroe Co., Va. 
he applied for a pension, which claim was allowed. At that time he was 
78 years old, and he died 2 years later. 

His children in 1847 were:— 

1* John Boone, 57 years old (b. 1790). 

2 ® Nancy Boone (Burdett), 53 years old (b. 1794). 

3* Henry Boone, 46 years old on 10 Mar., 1848 (b. 1802).

FAMILY OF MICHAEL BOONE 

(Data furnished by Miss Eulah Elinor Ellis, No. 3110 Wabash Ave., 
Kansas City, Mo.) 

Michael Boone (said to be the son of George), was one of a large 
family of brothers and sisters, some of whom were: Joseph, James, John, 
Isaac, and girls who married into the Witt, Snyder, and Ely families 
of North Carolina, and later of Indiana and Ohio. 

Michael Boone lived and died on his farm in the ML Pleasant 
district of Frederick Co., Md., where the old stone barn he built is still 
standing. His grave and that of his wife are nearby. 

Michael seems to have been married twice, as his son Abraham in 
his will speaks of “my half brother Nicholas.” Michael is said to have 
been an uncle of Daniel Boone. His children were:— 

1* ^ Abraham, d. in Va. in 1829.

FAMILY OF RATLIFF (or Ratcliff) BOONE, 

Acting Governor of Indiana in 1822. 

(Data furnished by Mrs. J. C. Carmichael of Louisiana, Mo., and 
Mrs^ Leona Van Horn Sutphen of Chicago.) 

Ratliff Boone, born 18 Jan., 1781, in North Carolina; died 20 Nov., 
1844, in Louisiana, Mo.; married 13 Aug., 1801, Delilah Anderson, daugh¬ 
ter of Baily and Mary Anderson of Kentucky. 

It is said that the parents of Ratliff Boone were Jesse and Kessiah 
Boone, and family tradition indicates a close relationship to Daniel 
Boone. When Ratliff was a boy his father emigrated from Georgia to 
Warren Co., Kentucky, where the son learned the gunsmith trade in the 
town of Danville. In 1809 Ratliff moved to the Territory of Indiana, 
locating in what is now Boone township, Warrick County. His home 
in Boonville, Ind., is still standing (1921). 

Ratliff Boone was elected the second Lieutenant Governor of Indiana, 
with Jonathan Jennings as Governor of the State. On Sept. 12, 1822, 
Governor Jennings resigned his office to accept a seat in Congress, and

his unexpired term of six months was filled by Lieutenant Governor 
Boone as Acting Governor. Boone was re-elected Lieutenafit Governor 
on the ticket with William Hendricks in 1822. He served in this office 
until the close of the legislative session in 1824, when he resigned to be¬ 
come a candidate for Congress in the first district. He was elected a 
member of Congress and represented his district six terms in that capa¬ 
city. In politics he spoke of himself as being a Democrat of the true 
Jeffersonian stamp. 

In 1839, his congressional career ended, he removed to Missouri, 
where he settled in Pike County, and at once became active there in 
public life and affairs. Regarding his appearance, a contemporary writes 

“Boone was a lithe, active man when I last saw him. In height he was 
about five feet ten inches, spare in person and as straight as an Indian. 
Without doubt he was closely related with the Boones of Kentucky^^ (Charles 
H. Test in his Recollections of Prominent Men of Indiana). 

Ratliff Boone died rather suddenly at his home in Missouri, after 
having anxiously awaited the news of James K. Polk’s election to the 
Presidency, in which occurrence he was intensely interested.

FAMILY OF SARAH BOONE (BROOKS) (MONTGOMERY) 

(Records furnished by Mrs. S. L. Leeka, 613 Center St., Marion, 
Ohio, and Mrs. W. M. Gardner, Russellville, Ohio) 

Sarah^ Boone, born 24 Nov., 1763; died in Adams County, Ohio, 
31 Dec., 1848. She married, first, probably at Boonesborough, Ky. (a) 
on 13 March, 1782, Thomas Brooks (b. about 1760; d. 15 Apr., 1800); 
and second, on 10 June, 1802, David Montgomery (b. 20 Jan., 1772; d. 
12 Feb., 1853). (5) 

Sarah Boone was undoubtedly a daughter of Samuel Boone (No. 22) 
brother of Daniel, although information concerning her was received too 
late for her name to be recorded among the children of Samuel Boone 
and wife Sarah Day. (See page 58.) 

In proof of this connection may be presented the following statements: 

1. Mrs. Elizabeth Scott, youngest daughter of Sarah Boone by her 
first husband, stated to Dr. Lyman Draper in September, 1863, that her 
father Thomas Brooks married Sarah Boone, daughter of Samuel Boone, 
brother of Daniel, (c) 

2. Mrs. Sabina Ellis, daughter of William Brooks and niece of 
Thomas Brooks, stated to Dr. Draper in 1858 that her uncle Thomas 
Brooks had married a Boone who had a brother Squire, (d) (There were 
only two members of the sixth generation named Squire Boone, living 
in Kentucky at that time: one a son of George Boone, the other a son of 
Samuel Boone; both nephews of Daniel.) 

3. A tradition in the family of Sarah Boone is that an uncle Thomas 
Boone was killed at the battle of Blue Licks. A yellow time-worn paper 






^Knbetcrminei) Connections

preserved in the family bears the statement that Thomas Boone was 
killed by Indians and was buried at Flat Rock (now Little Rock, Bourbon 
County, Ky.). It is known that Samuel Boone, brother of Daniel, had 
a son Thomas killed at Blue Licks. 

4. A descendant unfamiliar with the above proofs states that Sarah 
was a daughter of Samuel Boone, brother of Daniel the pioneer. 

Thomas Brooks, first husband of Sarah Boone, was a well-known 
scout and India.n fighter. His family was from Farquier Co. Virginia. 
He went to Kentucky in the early days of its settlement, and with 
Daniel Boone, Jacob Boone and others laid out the town of Limestone 
(now Maysville), where he lived until his death. He served three years 
as a private in the Virginia Continental Line, for which he received a 
grant of land, (e) In Mason Co., Ky. are records of land transfers 
signed by Thomas Brooks and Sarah Boone Brooks in 1791. 

After the death of Thomas Brooks his widow Sarah (Boone) married 
David Montgomery and moved across the Ohio River to Adams Co., 
Ohio, where she lived until her death. She was buried at Decatur, Ohio. 
One branch of the family has a tradition that Sarah Boone as a young 
girl carried water at Fort Boonesborough during the siege. If this is so 
she must have gone to Kentucky in advance of her parents, Samuel and 
Sarah (Day) Boone, who went there in 1779 and settled at Boone’s 
Station; or else the tradition refers to Boone’s Station, which was be¬ 
sieged in 1782. Her children were:— (6)

In connection with the above family, it may be stated that there 
was a Sarah Jane Brooks, born 5 Sept., 1811, who married Abraham 
Bloomhuff, 19 Sept., 1832. She was probably a granddaughter of Thomas 
Brooks and wife Sarah Boone, although it is not known which of their 
sons was her father. She and a younger brother Squire Boone Brooks 
(born 12 June, 1813; married Hester Brance) were left orphans when 
small children and were reared in the family of an Ellis Palmer of Mays- 
ville, Ky. Unfortunately the children lost touch with their Boone re¬ 
latives, and retained no knowledge of the family except the tradition 
that Daniel Boone was their uncle. They also remembered a visit from 
Daniel Boone in their early childhood. Both Sarah Jane Brooks and her 
brother Squire Brooks reared large families. The children of Abraham 
Bloomhuff and wife Sarah Jane Brooks were: Sydney, Mary Ann, Eliza¬ 
beth, William, Samuel Ellis, Abram Wallace, Emily Jane, Franklin, 
Sarah Louisa, Leonard, John Wesley, and Florence Josephine, who mar¬ 
ried Carl August Miller and resides at Valparaiso, Indiana. Mrs. Miller 
*has record of the descendants of this branch of the family.

steamboat captain on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers. He died on his 
steamboat, after a few years of married life, and was buried in New 
Orleans. Mrs. Boone lived on in her little cottage at West Middleton, Penn¬ 
sylvania, with her maiden daughter Elizabeth, until the mother’s death in 1874. 
The house was later occupied by Mrs. Boone’s aged sister-in-law, Phoebe 
Stewart, and her granddaughter Phoebe Acherson. Thomas and Eleanor 
Boone carefully preserved their small estate. To them were born four 
children:—

A FEW OTHER FAMILIES OF TRADITIONAL RELATIONSHIP 

Naming the first known Boone ancestor 

HANNAH BOONE, born 1 Nov., 1786; died 28 Jan., 1862; married 
in 1800 James Barnhill (b. 18 Aug., 1780; d. 1 Jan., 1825). They lived 
for a short time after marriage at Fort Boonesborough; later in Shelby 
Co., near Lynch’s Fort; in a few years moved to Oldham Co. (then part 
of Henry Co.); and in 1824 settled in Daviess Co., Ky. It is stated in 
a history of Daviess County, published in 1885, that Hannah (Boone) 
Barnhill was a daughter of Josiah Boone, and that she was born at Fort 
Boonesborough. 

A descendant of Hannah Boone is Mrs. J. L. Goss, Clinton, Mo.

ISAAC BOONE, of Berks County, Pa., had a daughter Mary who 
married Michael Kern (d. 11 Feb., 1850, buried at Amityville, Exeter 
Co., Pa.). Their children were: 1. Samuel Boone Kern, b. 1797, m. 
Elizabeth Boone, 2. William Boone Kern; 3. Jacob Boone Kern, settled in 

Ohio or Indiana; 4. Jeremiah Boone Kern, m.-Small; 5. Josiah Boone 

Kern, b. 26 March, 1804, m. Susannah Srark. The will of Isaac Boone, 
their grandfather, was dated 1794, and is recorded in Berks Co., Pa. 
It shows that he had a wife Sarah and a brother Hugh Boone whose son 
was named Owen. 

Hugh Boone, brother of Isaac, left will dated 1805, recorded also 
in Berks Co., Pa. It provides for wife Frances; sons Jonathan, Isaac, 
William, Mordecai and Owen; and daughters Hannah Evans and Eliza¬ 
beth Jones. There was a Hugh Boone appointed guardian for the minor 
children of Joseph Boone, dec., of Exeter Twp., Berks Co., Pa., in 1783. 
(Orphans’ Court Records, Berks Co.) 

For descendants of Isaac Boone address Mr. H. G. Schull, 808 
Paxinosa Ave., Easton, Pa. 

OVID BOONE, married Catherine—and had daughters: Leah Boone, 
b. 1775, who married James Parker (b. 1774) of Harrison Co., Ind; and 
Mecca Boone, b. 1798-9; d. 1815-20 in Greentown, Howard Co., Ind., 
married Benjamin Woods; and sons Randall and Ovid Jr. There are 
indications that Ovid Boone was a brother of Jacob Boone of Maysville, 
Ky., and possibly a son of Joseph Boone of Berks Co., Pa., who died 
before 1779. (See page 481). Ovid lived near Lexington, Ky., until about 
1815-20, when he moved to Wayne Co., Ind. 

Descendants of Ovid Boone are Mrs. J. M. Sewell, 4231 15th Ave., 
N. E., Seattle, Wash.; and Miss Kimberly, Librarian of Public Library 
of Marshalltown, Iowa. 

WILLARD BOONE, born Feb., 1788; died Dec., 1870; married 7 
Oct., 1809, Deborah Davis (b. 1790, d. Aug., 1864), daughter of George 
Davis. They settled in Granville, Washington Co., N. Y. and had child¬ 
ren: Harriet, b. 1810, d. 1901, m. 1829 Charles Tingue; Samuel; Delis 
(or Delia) and Rhoda who both died young; Arelda, m. Horace Harris; 
and Lorenzo Dow. Willard Boone had brothers Moses and Aaron, and 

a sister Patty. 

A descendant of Willard Boone is Mr. C. E. Tingue, Sunset Lodge, 
Cambridge, N. Y. 

PRUDENCE PETERS, said to have been a cousin of Daniel Boone, 
had two sisters. Patience (called Patty) and Temperance (called Tempy) 
and a brother, possibly called Sam. Prudence was born in St. Peters¬ 
burg, Va., about 1758, and moved to Kentucky with her parents. She

died near St. Mary's, Marion Co., Ky., 22 Oct., 1851. She was twice 
married: first, to Zachariah Taylor, by whom she had a son Zachariah

Ray. 

A descendant of Prudence Peters is Miss Cora Ray, 822 Cottage St., 
Belton, Texas. 

RHODA BOONE SMITH, born 3 Jan., 1795, married Abraham 
Skaggs. She is said to have been a grand-niece of Daniel Boone,—her 
mother, Mrs. Smith, possibly a daughter of Jonathan Boone, brother of 
Daniel. Rhoda Boone Smith had brothers Samuel Smith; Dr. David 
Ewing Smith; Jesse P. Smith; and sisters Polly Smith, b. 1790; Cynthia 
Frances Smith, b. 1797; Katherine Smith, b. 1800, m. Smith Taylor; and 
Kessiah Smith, b. 1804, m. Peter Downey. There are strong family 
traditions regarding the Boone relationship, and old letters indicate a 
close connection to the family of Ratleff Boone of Indiana (see page 495).

The ancestry of some of those who married into the Boone family 

in early generations. 

THE BRYAN FAMILY 

Perhaps no pioneer family has a history so similar to that of the 
Boone family and so closely identified with it, as the Bryan family. 
Beginning with their early residence on the Yadkin River, the association 
between the two families has continued almost up to the present day, 
strengthened by many intermarriages and by the strong friendships 
formed in the frontier settlements. 

From an article written by Dr. J. D. Bryan, a descendant of Morgan 
Bryan, comes this interesting account of the origin of the family:— 

The name Bryan has been spelled in every way in which the letters 
could be transposed, as ^‘Brian, Bryen, Bryon, Brion, Brien, Briant, and 
Bryant,” but there is evidence that they are all one people, sprung from the 
same source, viz., Bryan, King of Munster and All Ireland. 

In 978, Kennedy, King of Munster, was succeeded by his son, BRYAN, 
who was born about 927; consequently was 51 years old when he became 
king of Munster. As a general in his father’s army he had become one of 
the most noted princes in Ireland, and after becoming king, he drove the 
Danes from his kingdom of Munster. His fame became so great that he was 
crowned at Tara in 1002 ‘‘Ard Righ,” or supreme monarch of all Ireland. 
He was a man of broad intellect, and instituted reforms that made him the 
most noted monarch of Ireland. Schools and colleges were revived; roads 
built, a navy built up and an efficient army organized. 

During the wars of conquest which began about that time, many native 
princes were killed, were forced to flee, or were executed. In 1115, Pope 
Adrian IV conferred the sovereignty of Ireland on Henry II, of England. 
Some of the Bryans must have gone to Denmark with friendly Danes, 
for there a descendant of Bryan, believed to be William Bryan, was born 
about 1630. He lived in Denmark until he married a girl whose name is 
thought to have been Sarah Bringer, and had a son born about 1671, whom 
he named Morgan. After that they returned to Ireland. 

When MORGAN BRYAN grew to manhood he left his parents in Ire¬ 
land and went to Pennsylvania. In Chester Co., Pa., 1719, he married 
Martha Strode, a Hollander, who is said to have been a descendant of Sir 
William Strode, one of the five members who condemned Charles I and 
signed his death warrant, (a)

Poonc Jf amilp 


From another source comes a rather different story of the ancestry 
of Morgan Bryan who married Martha Strode:— 

‘‘William Smith Bryan was deported from Ireland by the British 
Government as a rebellious subject, and at that time was thought to be the 
only lineal descendant of ‘Bryan Borou,’ King of Ireland. The English 
Government shipped him with his family, goods and chattels (consisting of 
a ship-load) and dropped them off on Gloucester Beach, Virginia. William 
Smith Bryan had eleven sons and three daughters, the record of whom is 
lost, excepting that of; 

Francis Bryan, who returned to Ireland in 1650 and made an endeavor 
to regain his hereditary title and estates. Being greatly persecuted by the 
English government, he was forced to flee to Denmark, where he married, 
and where his sons Morgan and William, were born. * * * Morgan Bryan 
removed to Ireland with his father, who was standard bearer to William and 
Mary of Orange, and was present at the battle of Boyne, 1690. Francis 
Bryan died at Belfast, Ireland, in 1694. 

Morgan Bryan was born in Denmark in 1671; his mother was a Danish 
woman. He had a brother, William Smith Bryan, of whom no record has 
been preserved. In the year 1695, Morgan Bryan removed to Pennsylvania. 
On the ship crossing the ocean he met Martha Strode, a Holland woman and 
refugee Huguenot; they were married shortly after the ship arrived, and re¬ 
sided at a place near the present city of Ileadin,g, Pa. In the year 1710, 
Morgan Bryan removed to Virginia and settled on Opequan Creek, about 
twelve miles from Winchester, Va., where most of his children grew up and 
were married and where he remained until the year 1748. His wife died in 
Winchester, Va., in 1747, and in 1748, he removed to the Yadkin River 
Country, North where he died in 176— (3?).’^ (6) 

Each of the two accounts given above, brings us down to Mor¬ 
gan Bryan and wife Martha Strode. They differ radically as to dates 
and names, although both follow the general migration from Ireland to 
Denmark, back to Ireland, and thence to America. As neither account 
gives authority for statements, in the way of public or family records, 
it is difficult to say which, if either, is correct. 

However, we know positively that a Morgan Bryan and wife Martha 
Strode of North Carolina, were the ancestors of William, Martha and 
Rebecca Bryan, and of Anne Linville, all of whom married Boones. 

On file in the Bureau of Pensions, Department of the Interior, at 
Washington, is the pension record or application of Samuel Bryan, son of 
William Bryan, who married Mary Boone. “It is stated in the claim 
that the soldier’s great-grandfather was a Dane, and lived in Denmark 
until his son, Morgan, was born; then moved to Ireland. His name and 
that of his wife are not stated. Morgan, when he became of age, emi¬ 
grated to America and settled in Pennsylvania, where he married Martha 
Strode, a Hollander whose parents had moved to France to escape per¬ 
secution because of their religion (Protestant), started for Pennsylvania 
and died at sea, leaving three children, Jeremiah, Samuel and Martha, 
who were provided for by their shipmates until of a^ge, when the above

named Martha married Morgan Bryan. Their children were Joseph, 
Elenor, Mary, Samuel, Morgan, John^ William, James and Thomas.^’ (c) 

An interview with George Bryan, son of Morgan Bryan, Jr., and 
grandson of Morgan and Martha (Strode) Bryan, which is preserved in 
the Draper Collection of Manuscripts, gives the ‘‘Old Stock” of Bryans, 
(children of Morgan and Martha) as follows:— Joseph, Samuel, Morgan, 
Ellender (Mrs. Linville); John, James, and Thomas, (d) 

Dr. J. D. Bryan, quoted above, says that Morgan Bryan continued 
to live in Chester Co., (Pa.) until four or five of his eldest children were 
born. “About 1728 or ’30, Morgan Bryan, Alexander Ross, and other 
Friends (Quakers) obtained a grant of 100,000 acres of land on the 
Potomac and Opequan Rivers in the colony of Virginia. He (Morgan 
Bryan) moved to this land and settled near the present site of Winchester 
about 1730. Here the rest of his children were born. * * * * Martha 
Strode Bryan died about 1747 and was buried at the home near the 
present site of Winchester, Va. After her death Morgan Bryan sold his 
interests in Virginia, and in the fall of 1748 moved his family to North 
Carolina and settled in the Forks of theYadkin River.” (a) 

An early pioneer traveler over the road the Bryans followed from Win¬ 
chester, Va., to the Yadkin country, left this statement:— “People 
had told us that this hill was most dangerous, and that we would scarcely 
be able to cross it, for Morgan Bryan, the first to travel this way, had 
to take the wheels off his wagon and carry it piece-meal to the top, and 
had been three months on the journey from the Shanidore (Shenandoah) 
to the Etkin (Yadkin).” (e) 

The new home of the Bryans was then a frontier about sixty miles 
from the nearest settlement, where they went to buy corn and supplies. 
The sons all became hunters; all settled in the same neighborhood and 
had the choice pieces of land in that section, afterward called Bryan’s 
Settlement. This is in what is now Rowan County. Morgan Bryan 
had been living on the Yadkin about two years, when Squire Boone came 
from Pennsylvania and settled nearby, thus becoming a neighbor. It 
was here in Rowan County that Morgan Bryan died in 1763, at the age 
of 92, and was buried in Mocksville (now Davie) Co. 

The children of Morgan Bryan and Martha (Strode) were:— 

12 Joseph Bryan Sr., d. abt., 1805; m. (1)-; and (2) Alee— (d. it is thought prior 

to 1805). Of the first wife nothing is known, only that Joseph Bryan Jr., was her 
child. When his father moved down on the Yadkin, Joseph Bryan remained at 
Winchester, Va., where he had married and settled. Later we find he was living 
about 4 miles from where his father was living on the Yadkin. 

In 1797, he with his brother Samuel, visited Ky., and in 1798, he rented Well’s 
Station in Shelby County from Enoch M. Boone. In a year or so he and his family, 
two sons and a son-in-law, bought land on Floyd’s Fork, in Shelby County, and 
settled there. He had been in the country some little time before settling at Well’s 
Station, and had brought negroes, teams, and money into Kentucky with him.

509 


At the time he visited Ky. (abt. 1797) he was seen by Col. Samuel Boone {George'^; 
Squire'^; George^), who was also on a visit to Ky., and who gives this description 
of him: “Joseph Bryan, the father-in-law of Col. Daniel Boone, was a tall, raw- 
boned man,—an old man.” (d) 

He was hving on Floyd’s Fork when he died about 1805, and it is thought his wife. 
Alee, died a httle before he did. 

In Jefferson County, Ky., in Will Book I, page 158, we find a copy of his will, which 
was dated 20 November, 1804, and probated 4 March, 1805. Following is a copy 
of this will. 

“In the name of God, Amen. I, Joseph Bryan of the County of Jefferson and State 
of Kentucky, being weak in body but of sound and perfect mind and memory, 
blessed be Almighty God for the same, do make and pubhsh this my last wiU and 
testament in manner and form following (that is to say) after my lawful debts 
are settled, I give and bequeath unto my beloved wife Alee, a gray mare, a bed, 
and furniture, and thirty dollars either cash or property. I also give and be¬ 
queath to my sons, Samuel, Joseph, and John Bryan, the sum of fifty dollars each, 
either cash or property. I also give and bequeath to my youngest son, John 
Bryan, one Negro man named James and all the farming tools. I also give and 
bequeath unto my daughters, Martha Boon and Rebecca Boon, the sum of twenty 
dollars each, either cash or property. I also give and bequeath unto my other 
daughters, Mary Howard, Susannah Hinkle, Ay lee Howard, Phebe Forbis, and 
Charity Davis, the sum of fifty dollars each, either cash or property. I also give 
and bequeath unto my daughter, Elenor Adams, a Negro woman named Jean, 
I also give and bequeath unto my grand-daughter. Ay lee Adams , one Negro girl 
named Sarah. I also give and bequeath unto my grand-son, Noah Adams, one 
Negro boy named Sapio. I also give and bequeath unto my grandson, Jacob 
Adams, one Negro boy named Bob. I also give and bequeath unto my grandson, 
Wilah Adams, a Negro Girl named Lotty. And I do hereby appoint my two sons, 
Joseph and John Bryan, Executors of this my last will and testament, hereby 
revoking aU former wills and testaments by me made. 

In witness Whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this twentieth day of 
November in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and four.

North Carolina, Samuel Bryan and William Bryan were named and appointed 
to “raise, levy, muster and array in arms all of his Majesty’s loyal subjects in 
Rowan County.” Samuel Bryan raised 800 men on the Forks of the Yadkin 
River and marched them to the British at Anson Court House. As Colonel 
Bryan, he was one of his Majesty’s most loyal subjects during the Revolutionary 
War, and was with Lord Cornwallis on his march through the state. In 1797, 
together with his brother Joseph, he visited George Boone, son of Squire and 
Sarah (Morgan) Boone. It is thought he never afterward returned to Kentucky. 
In 1783, after his return from Bryan’s Station in Ky., to North CaroUna, he was 
arrested, tried for treason, and his property confiscated. After his release he moved 
to New York, where he left numerous descendants. He visited England about 
some claims from the British Government, but was entirely broken up by the War. 
Carruther’s says, “Colonel Bryan and Colonel Hampton were men of unimpeach¬ 
able character, and had nothing to be laid to their charge, except that of bearing 
arms against their country.” Samuel Bryan of Syracuse, N. Y., Congressman in 
1902, a great grandson, had in his possession at one time the sword carried by 
his great-grandfather in the Revolutionary War. (6)

From George Bryan, son of Morgan Jr., is this statement:— 

‘‘Neddy (Edward) Boone, George Boone and the old Col. (Daniel) all 
married cousins of mine. All brothers. Neddy and the Col. married sisters. 
George married a daughter of Aunt Linville’s.’’ (d) 

Another interesting bit about the children of Morgan Bryan reads:— 

“During the Revolutionary War six of the sons served in the American 
Army,,and one (evidently Samuel, H. A. S.) cast his lot with the Tories. 
He was promoted to the position of Colonel, and served with Tarleton dur¬ 
ing his campaign in the Carolinas. * * * * 

Two of the brothers, who were in the American Army (James and 
Morgan), were at the bloody battle of King’s Mountain, and from the best 
information we can obtain, their Tory brother fought against them in the 
same battle. The war feeling ran so high that they would have shot him 
if he had come within range of their rifles. 

Three of the brothers (James, William and Morgan) followed Daniel 
Boone into Ky., and built Bryan’s Station near Lexington.” *(h)

THE BURRIS AND TRIBBLE FAMILIES 

THOMAS BURRIS, the head of this family, died in Orange Co., 
Va., about 1789. He married Frances Tandy. 

From the ‘^Quisenberry Genealogy,” by Anderson Chenault Quisen- 
berry, we learn that Frances Tandy who married Thomas Burris was the 
daughter of Roger Tandy, whose mother was a Miss Colby, a descendant 
of Sir Edward Colby, a member of the original London Company that 
settled Jamestown (Va.). The will of Thomas Burris was probated 
March 1789, in Orange Co., Va, In it he bequeathed to his daughter, 
Sarah Ann Tribble, one negro girl named Agnes, and all her increase; 
also one feather bed and furniture. Thomas Burris and Frances Tandy 
had several children, those who are known being listed below: 

1^ Frances Tandy Burris, m. “Billy” Bush.

Chenault Quisenberry.) 

3* Sarah Ann Burris, b. 30 Sept., 1753; d. 15 Dec., 1830; m. 1768, Rev. Andrew 
Tribble (b. 22 Mar., 1741; d. 30 Dec., 1822), a native of Orange Co., Va. He was a 
Baptist; preached at a little church near MonticeUo, and was a personal friend of 
Thomas Jefferson. They moved to Ky., in 1785. Their children were:— 

1^ Frances Tribble, b. 3 Nov., 1769; d. 11 May 1852; m. George Michael 
Stoner (b. 1748; d. 3 Sept., 1813 or '15). See the “Stoner Family” and

Nebo, in Madison Co., Ky., about two miles north east of Richmond, on 
a prong of Otter Creek, in 1795, and was baptised by Elder Peter Woods. 
He was for twenty years a Justice of the Peace of the County, an ex¬ 
tensive farmer, and accumulated a considerable fortune. For a period 
of more than fifty years, he served four churches as pastor, preaching 
much through the mountains of Ky., even down to old age.” (W. H.

THE CALLAWAY FAMILY 

We know nothing of the Callaway Family further back than the 
father and uncle of Flanders Callaway. These two brothers were: 

V JAMES C. CALLAWAY, died in Virginia. His name does not 
appear in early Kentucky history, in which some of his sons were so active. 
His sons of whom we have record were: 

James Callaway, d. Aug., 1835, aged about 74; m. Susan White, daughter of 
Stephen White. James Callaway was captured by Indians with Daniel 
Boone and others, and spent three years in a Quebec prison. He had sons, 
John and Charles. 

2^ Micajah Callaway, had a son. Noble CaUaway. 

3* (Possibly) Chester Callaway (Draper Mss. 22 S 142). 

42 (Possibly) WiUiam CaUaway (23 S 185-6; 199-201, an interview with Mrs. 
Susan Howell). 

5* Flanders CaUaway, b. 9 Dec., 1758; d. 19 Aug., 1824; m. Jemima Boone 
{Daniel^, Squire'^; George^), (for their descendants see No. 103). 

2^ RICHARD CALLAWAY, brother of James C. Callaway, was one 
of the very earliest settlers of Kentucky. He is said to have performed 
the marriage ceremony for his nephew Flanders Callaway and Jemima 
Boone. His two daughters, named below, were the girls captured with, 
Jemima Boone by Indians. Children:— 

12 Frances CaUaway. 

2^ EUzabeth CaUaway, who married Samuel Henderson. This was the first 
marriage ceremony performed in Kentucky. Squire Boone, Jr., brother 
of Daniel, officiated. 

3^ John CaUaway. (a) At one time, about July 1782, (6) Captain WiUiam Hays 
and some others had gone out to cut a race-track near Hoy’s Station. 
Indians crept between them and the Station, intercepting two small 
boys, John CaUaway and Jones Hoy, the latter a Uttle the older, who were 
going out to where the men were working. The Indians took the boys 
prisoners and hurried off with them, being pursued by a party, one member 
of which, was Major Hoy, the father of Jones. 

When the Indians stopped to cook a meal soon after, they sent one of their 
number to watch their back trail. He soon returned with word that the 
whites were approaching. The two boys, under guard, were sent on 
out of the way, while the rest of the Indians “treed” ready for the battle, 
in which they soon defeated the whites. 

The boys were kept several years, returning about 1785, so grown up that 
they were not easily recognized until they were weU washed. WFen 
they came home, they stopped first at Squire Boone’s Station (c) on Bras- 
hear Creek, from which place they were accompanied by Moses Boone to 
Fort Boonesborough, where John CaUaway’s mother Uved. Young 
CaUaway could speak English, but was quite an Indian in many ways.

THE DAVIS-WATTS FAMILIES 

I. The first known member of this family was Louis Cave Davis, 
who came from England, and had seven sons. All of these sons served 
in the Revolutionary War and War of 1812, fiv>5 of them losing their 
lives. One son was, 

II. Leonard Davis of Pa., whose children were:—

moved to Kentucky where he met and married in 1800, Mary Colson Halhday 
(b. 1785 in Ky.; d. 13 Feb., 1845 on her farm). Augustus Cave Davis and his wife 
were one of the 150 families who colonized Boone’s Lick Settlement (Howard Co., 
Mo.) in 1810. They lived in Cooper’s Fort and he engaged in battle with Indians 
in the War of 1812. Mary Colson Halliday was the daughter of Benjamin Halli- 
day (son of Capt. Joseph Halliday of the Continental Va., Line and of one of the 
Colonial families of Va.), and his wife, Sarah Hampton, a member of the Hampton 
family of Va^. (See “Colonial Families of U. S.” by George McKeazie.) Augustus

THE EDWARDS FAMILY 

I. The first of this line was Hayden Edwards of Stafford Co., Va. 
who married' Penelope Sandford. Before the close of the eighteenth 
century he moved with his wife to Kentucky, where each died at the age 
of ninety years. They had been reared in the Episcopal Church, but later 
became Baptists. They had several daughters and four sons, of whom 
one was: 

II. Benjamin^ Edwards, born about 1753 in Stafford Co., Va., and 
died 13 Nov., 1826, in his seventy-fourth year, at his home in Elkton, 
Todd Co., Ky. He married at an early age Margaret Beal, daughter of 
Ninian Beal of Montgomery Co., Md. For nearly 25 years they resided 
at their farm, ^‘Mount Pleasant” in Montgomery Co., Md. about nine 
miles from the county seat. About 1800 they moved to Kentucky. 
Benjamin Edwards was a man of excellent mind and of extraordinary 
force and decision of character. He was a natural orator, and was only 
restrained by his unconquerable diffidence from becoming a widely known 
public speaker. Before leaving Maryland, he rose to considerable dis¬ 
tinction in public life. He represented the County of Montgomery for 
several years in the State Legislature of Maryland; was a member of the 
State Convention which ratified the Federal Constitution; and was after¬ 
wards a member of the first Congress (1794-5) during Washington’s second 
administration. Two of his sons were; 

P Ninian Edwards, b. Mar., 1775, Montgomery Co., Maryland; d. 20 June, 1833, in 
Illinois. He was the first Governor of Territory of Illinois, taking oath of office, 
11 June, 1809. 

23 Elisha Beal Edwards, m. (1) Mary Richardson, by whom he had one daughter: 

1 ^ Mary Edwards, m. Judge Livingston Lindsay. 

Elisha Beal Edwards married (2) Martha Feliciana Upshaw of Virginia. Of this 
union there were four children, one of whom died in infancy. The other three, 
who lived to old age were: 

2* Dr. E. B. Edwards. 

3^ Margaret L. Edwards. Never married. 

4^ Martha Maria Edwards, b. about 1817: d. 1911, when nearly 94 years 
old. Married Higgason G. Boone (Squire®; Samuel®: Squire^; George®). 
See No. 315.

THE FOULKE—HUGHES FAMILY 


In 1698, Edward Foulke left Coed-y-foel, a farm on the river Tore- 
weryn, not far from Bala in Wales, and accompanied by his wife and 
nine children, journeyed to Liverpool, where they arrived two days later, 
on the fifth of April. There they met ‘‘divers others who intended to go 
the voyage.’’ They all set sail for America on the ship “Robert and 
Elizabeth,” touching first at Dublin. On board were among others Hugh 
Griffith and family, and John Hugh and family, alB<o from Wales. Edward 
Foulke left a graphic account of the voyage. They landed at Philadelphia 
the 17th of July, 1698, some three months after leaving the little home 
in Wales, and all settled in Gwynedd township, Philadelphia Co. (now 
Berks), Pa. (Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, Vol. 8, page 
174-183). 

An autobiography of Edward Foulke who came to America in 1698 
with wife Eleanor, can be found in “Welsh Settlements of Pennsylvania,” 
by Charles H. Browning, p. 596. The same book states (p. 302) that 
Edward Foulke was a direct descendant of Edward I. of England, and 
refers to Burke’s “Royal Families,” Vol. II; Dwnn’s (or Dwin’s) “Welsh 
Pedegrees” or “Visitations,” and Dugdale’s “Baronage of England.”* 

Tradition in two distinct branches of the Boone family traces back 
to one Edward Foulke who came from Wales, as the father of Jane 
Foulke, b. 1684, whose son John Hughes married Hannah Boone. If this 
tradition can be accepted the line will be as follows:— 


I. Edward Foulke, of Wales, married Eleanor or Ellin Hughes. 
(“Welsh Founders of Pennsylvania” Vol. I, p. 150, by Thomas Allen Glenn 
says that Edward Foulke of Gwynedd, Pa., b. 1651, married Eleanor, 
and had children Thomas, Hugh, Cadwalader, Evan, Grace, Jane, Catherine 
and Margaret.) 


II. Jane^ Foulke, daughter of Edward and Eleanor, was born 10 
Jan., 1684 (Old Style); died 7 Oct., 1766 (Old Style); married Ellis 
Hughes (1687-1764), son of John Hughes or Hughs (1652-1736) and wife 
Martha. This marriage, which occurred 5 June, 1713, is recorded in 
“Abstracts of Records of Radnor Monthly Meeting” p. 290, to be found 
in the library of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania. The marriage 
record says that Ellis Hughes was the son of John Hughs of Gwynedd, 
County of Phila., and that Jane Foulke was the daughter of Edward 
Foulke of Gwynedd. The ceremony was witnessed by Edward Morgan, 
Ellin Foulke, Ellin Hughs, John Hughs, Ed. Foulke, Row. Hughs, Thomas 


*In “Welsh Settlements of Pennsylvania” by Charles H. Browning, 1912, page 300, may be found the fol- 

lowing^^^^^^ Foullte 1651-1741, removed from Coed y Foel, 2 Feb., 1698, to a tract of 700 acres of land which 
he had bought in Gwynedd tp., Phila Co., with his family. He married Eleanor or Ellin Hughs, daughter of 
Hueh Cadwalader Rhys of Yspytty, or Spytu parish, Denbighshire, and had by her, who d in 1733. mne children. 

Mr Browning traces the ancestry of Edward Foulke of Gwynedd back through mneteen generations to Ed¬ 
ward I *king of England: and that of Edward’s wife, Ellin Hughs, back through eighteen generations to John, 
king of England, (pp. 298-302).

Foulke, Cadwalader Foulke and others. In the records of Exeter Month¬ 
ly Meeting we find that Jane, the wife of Ellis Hugh, was born in Mer- 
ionithshire, in the north of Wales, and came to Pennsylvania with her 
father Edward Foulke and family in about the 14th or 15th year of 
her age. She was an elder of Exeter Meeting for about thirty years. 
The approximate date of her arrival in America tends to confirm the 
tradition that she was a daughter of Edward Foulke. She died at the 
home of her son-in-law, Samuel Lee, in Oley Twp. Berks Co. 

Ellis Hugh (Hughs or Hughes) who married Jane Foulke was no 
doubt the son of John Hugh who came with his family in the ship Robert 
and Elizabeth, in company with Edward Foulke and family. 

Children of Ellis and Jane^ Hughes (recorded in Records of Exeter 
Meeting):— 

1 ® John Hughes, born 19 May, 1714 (Old Style); died prior to 1766. Married 9 mo. 
(Nov.) 1742, in Exeter, Berks Co. Pa., Hannah Boone {George^; Georg^). Hannah 
died 8 July, 1746, aged 27, and John married a second time in May, 1748, Martha 
Coles. Both marriages are recorded in Exeter Records. 

For descendants of John and Hannah see No. 12. 

We will note here only John’s children who married Boones. 

1 * George Hughes, son of John and first wife Hannah, married Martha Boone 
(James*; George^). See No. 62. 

2* Jane Hughes, daughter of John and first wife Hannah, married Samuel 
Boone (Samuel*; George^). See No. 58. 

3^ Eleanor Hughes, daughter of John and second wife Martha, married Samuel 
Boone (Benjamin*; George^). See No. 44. 

Other children of EUis and Jane Hughes were:

THE GRUBBS FAMILY 

William^ Grubbs, who died 1775, was the first known member of 
the family. He married Susanna Hearne, and went to Kentucky from 
Albermarle County, Virginia, about 1775, with eight or nine daughters 
and one son Higgason, and made claim for land. William Grubbs died a 
few days after reaching Kentucky and is buried at Bryants Station. After 
his death his wife and children went to Madison County, where Mrs. 
Susanna (Hearne) Grubbs died later and was buried on Tate^s Creek 
Pike about three miles west of Richmond. 

Their children were:— 

1 ^ Sarah (Sallie) Grubbs, married James Berry. 

2 ^ Elizabeth Grubbs, m. Christopher Harris, a preacher, son of Christopher Harris and 
his 1st wife Agnes McCord. (See the Harris Family history on p. 531, for his 
further ancestry.) 

3^ Nancy Grubbs, m. Robert Harris, a brother of Christopher. (For his ancestry, and 
their descendants, see the Harris Family history.) 

4^ Mary (Mollie) Grubbs, married Robert Moore. 

5^ Susan Grubbs married John Moore. 

6 ^ Anna (Annie) Grubbs, b. 1766; m. Squire* Boone {Samuel^; Squirt; George^), a bap¬ 
tist preacher. See No. 86. 

7^ Lucy Grubbs, married Thomas Gooch. 

8 ^ Henrietta (Hennie) Grubbs, married Andrew Rea (Ray). 

9^ Frances (Fannie) Grubbs, m. Joshua Barton. 

10^ Higgason Grubbs, d. 30 June, 1830; married Lucy Harris, of Albemarle County 
Virginia, a daughter of James and Mary Harris. (See the Harris Family history 
for her ancestry.) 

The date of the birth of Higgason^ Grubbs, the only son of William^ 
and Susanna (Hearne) Grubbs, is not known. Some time prior to 1780, 
in Albermarle County, Virginia, he married Lucy Harris, a daughter of 
James a,nd Mary Harris. (For her ancestry see article on Harris family.) 
After his death his wife survived him but a short time. He had many 
land transactions, amassed quite a fortune for those days, and became a 
prominent and substantial citizen of newly settled Kentucky. He possibly 
remained in Virginia until after his marriage, and emigrated to Kentucky 
about 1780, when it was still a part of Virginia and known as Kentucky 
County. He settled in Madison County, where he lived until his death, 
with the exception of a few years in Estill County, and possibly some 
short time in Lincoln County. 

The earliest record of his being in Kentucky is found in a deposition 
in Madison County, given 14 March, 1801, in which he locates a corner 
tree on a survey. He testified that in October, 1780, while he and Jesse 
Copher were hunting Buffalo, they camped under a beech tree on which 
they cafved their initials, “H. G.’’ and “J. C.’’ and the date “1780.” 
He also testified that this was the tree called for in the Shelton survey 
concerned. It seems that he established two forts in what is now

BOONE—GRUBBS CHART. 




























528 


®t)e Poone Jf amtlp 


Madison County; Grubbs Station in 1781, on Tates Creek two miles west 
of Hoy’s Station, and Grubb’s Station on Muddy Creek. (See Collin’s 
History of Kentucky.) Grubbs’ Station was established in the fall of 
1791 by a few families under the leadership of Higgason Grubbs. The 
following summer a crop was raised there, but because of Indian depre¬ 
dations the Station was deserted for a while during the summer, and re¬ 
occupied that same fall. 

Higgason Grubbs belonged to the Minute Men of Virginia but not 
to the regular army, and acquired the title of ‘‘Captain.” No record 
has been found of his being a commissioned officer, however. The rec¬ 
ords of Madison County (Ky.) show that he had a good education, 
writing a good hand and spelling correctly. These records are docu¬ 
ments and depositions, which seem to be made in his own handwriting, 
made while he was surveyor. He was prominent in the early settlement 
of Kentucky, having rendered this public service: 

1. 1787—One of the Trustees of Boonesboro, appointed by the Gover¬ 
nor of Virginia to supply place of Trustees first named (Acts Virginia— 
Hennings S^tatutes Vol. 12 page 603-788) and at one time residing in the 
Fort at Boonesboro. 

2. Represented Madison County in the two famous Conventions at 
Danville (1787and 1788). 

3. 1790-91—Member Virginia Legislature from Madison County, 
Kentucky. 

4. 1792—Member from Madison County at the 1st. Constitutional 
Convention at Danville, called on the 2d of April 1792 to make a Constitution 
for the new State of Kentucky, which was to be admitted to the Union on 
June 1st, 1792. 

5. In May, 1792, Isaac Shelby was chosen Governor of Kentucky by 
forty electors who represented the people and who also elected the first 
Senators, one of these electors being Higgason Grubbs. 

6. 1792—He was also a Representative in the first Legislature, which 
Convened at Lexington. 

7. At various times from 1792 until 1802, he was a member of the 
House of Representatives (Madison County) Kentucky. About the latter 
date he forced to retire from public life to look after private interests. Rec¬ 
ords of Madison County reveal that in later years he lost most, if not all, of 
the wealth he had amassed in his younger days. 

The children of Higgason^ and Lucy (Harris) Grubbs were:— 

1 ^ William Grubbs. 

2 ^ John Grubbs, d. March 27th, 1872 in Logan County, Ky., aged about 86; married 

(1) Lucy Gooch, daughter of Thomas and Lucy (Grubbs) Gooch. She died in 
Mercer County, Ky. prior to 1819, quite a young woman, John Grubbs married 

(2) Miss-Fort; (3) Miss-Chastien; and (4) Miss-Morgan. 

3^ Thomas Grubbs (who was the eldest son) m. 28 November 1798, Kate Howard, 
daughter of Benjamin and Rebecca (Turner) Howard. 

4^ James Grubbs, married Polly Oldham. 

5® Jesse Grubbs, m. 24 Dec. 1818, Nancy Oldham, a daughter of Captain John and 
Annis (Rice) Oldham. Jesse Grubbs was in the War of 1812. They moved to 
Montgomery Co. Ky. and made their home there until their deaths.

The children of Jesse and Nancy (Oldham) Grubbs were: 

1^ Joel H. Grubbs, married Mary Green. 

2 “* Mary Grubbs, married Andrew Fesler. 

3^ John Waller Grubbs, b, 19 April, 1821 d. 14 June, 1854; m. 23 February 
1843 Minerva^ Tribble Stoner {Nancy"^ Tribble; Mary^ Boone; George^; 
Squire*; George^) (b. 17 March 1825; d. 17 September 1906). See No. 
1315. 

4^ Thomas Higgason Grubbs, married Eliza Jarman. 

5^ Sarah Elizabeth Grubbs, married William H. Winn. 

6 ^ Nancy Grubbs (6th. child of Higgason) born 8 June, 1771; d. 22 March, 1835; m. 
16 Aug. 1789, William^ Boone {George^; Squire*; George^). He was b. 22 Feb. 1768 
in North Carolina; died 1847. See No. 122. 

7^ Mourning Grubbs a daughter of Higgason and Lucy (Harris) Grubbs, m. Squire® 
Boone {George^; Squire*; George^). See No. 124. 

8 ^ Lucy Grubbs, a daughter of Higgason and Lucy Grubbs m.-Barnes. (Col. S. M. 

Barnes of Estill County Ky., and Thomas H. Barnes of Madison County were 
grandsons of Higgason and Lucy Grubbs.) 

Note: —There is record of an old deed made by Higgason Grubbs dated 
July, 1812 in which he gives the name of his eight children as Nancy 
Boone, Thomas Grubbs, Mourning Boone, James Grubbs, John Grubbs, 
William Grubbs, Jesse Grubbs and Lucy Grubbs. 

There is also record of a deed dated July 9, 1812, the opening sentence of 
which is, ‘T, Higgason Grubbs of Madison County and State of Kentucky, 
do hereby relinquish all my claim as husband to my wife Lucy Grubbs, 
daughter of James Harris deceased, of Albermarle Co., Va.” 

(The above is compiled from information furnished by Judge Charles 
S. Grubbs of Louisville, Ky., a grandson of John Grubbs, son of Higga¬ 
son; and from ^‘History and Genealogies,’’ by William H. Miller of Rich¬ 
mond, Ky.) 

John Grubbs Family 

It is a tradition that the head of this family was closely related to 
William Grubbs who married Susanna Heaj’ne, but the records which 
might verify this connection have not been found. Family Bible records 
give the dates of birth, death and marriage of John Grubbs and wife, 
but nothing of their ancestry. 

JOHNi GRUBBS, born 26 April, 1751; died 6 Nov., 1819. 

Married 21 Dec., 1769, Sarah Hopkins (b. 7 May, 1754; d. 30 June,- 
1832). 

Below is a copy of a letter written by John Grubbs in Virginia the 
year before his death, to his son Thomas Boone: 

Aug. 23, 1818. 

‘‘Dear Son:— 

“I embrace the present opportunity of writing to you to inform you we 
are all in tolerable health at present, thanks to the giver of all our mercies, 
hoping these lines may find you and yours enjoying the same blessing. I 
can’t at present inform you when I can come down. I want to come with 
Br. Warder when he comes, if I should be well enough. I saw him yester¬ 
day at our meeting and he informed me he expected it would be four or five 







530 


®f)e poonc Jf amilp 


weeks before he could come down. When I first spoke to him about coming 
down he said he thought it would suit him to come the first of this present 
month, but something has transpired that prevents his coming now. 

‘‘We have had Br. Walter Warder down with us; he preached at my house 
and at the meeting house likewise. I went over to our Association and from 
thence I went to see your Aunt Gillum. I found them in tolerable health, 
tho^ I find your Aunt is often complaining. She would have come home 
with me but the weather was so catching and wet we thought it would be 
imprudent for her to turn out, tho’ one of her sons came home with me to 
find the way, and she intends coming as soon as the weather gets cooler. I 
think it about 30 miles from my house. 

“I expect Br. Warder will send an appointment down sometime previous 
to his coming down. 

“from your Affectionate Father. 

' “John Grubbs. 

The children of John and Sarah Grubbs were: 

1^ Susanna Grubbs, b. 9 Jan., 1771. 

2^ Anderson Grubbs, b. 28 Sept., 1773 m. Susanna Winston (b. 10 Dec., 1774), daughter 
of Peter and E. (Perry) Winston. Susanna was a descendant of John De La 
Fontaine. (See Va., Historical CoUections—Vol. 5, page 141.) In 1824 Anderson 
Grubbs was living in Virginia and had two sons, John and Peter, and a daughter 
who was married to a man named Reeves. 

3^ Mary (PoUy) Grubbs, b. 16 Oct., 1777. Never married. 

4^ Frances Grubbs, b. 11 Nov., 1780. 

5^ Thomas Grubbs, b. 1786; m. a Mrs. Perkins, whose maiden name was Clopton; and 
settled near Russelville, Ky. He had a daughter who married Oscar C. Rhea. 

6 ^ Moody Grubbs, b. 1791; d. 26 July, 1837. m. about 1814, Cynthia^ Ann Boone {Squire^ 
Samuel^; Squiref^; Ge&rg^') (b. 1795; d. 1887). See No. 309. 

We have the following very interesting tradition concerning Moody^ Grubbs, which is 
quoted from a letter written by Mrs. Cynthia Stoddard of Hillsboro, Ill., a grand¬ 
daughter of Moody and Cynthia (Boone) Grubbs. The letter says in part:— 

“The Grubbs family to which Moody belonged came from Tennessee into Kentucky, 
when he was a young man, and I remember Grandmother telling me about the first 
time she saw him. She was going to church one Sunday morning and saw a tall 
handsome young man standing in a group of men. She said to the girl beside her, 
‘There is my husband!’ 

“She immediately ‘turned down’ the young man to whom she was engaged at the time, 
and set her cap to catch Moody. It wasn’t long before she became acquainted with 
him, for being a kinsman of her mother’s he soon came to their home. 

“Squire Boone lived not far from Elkton (Ky.) and Grandmother was married there, 
but I do not know the date. It was a large two-story log house with plenty of room 
for all that family. I used to beg my father to take me to Kentucky, when I was a 
child. I so longed to see the relatives there, especially his uncle Thomas Grubbs, who 
was such a fine old gentleman. He lived in Russelville and had a son who was a noted 
physician there for years.” 

Other children of John and Sarah (Hopkins) Grubbs were possibly:— 

7^ Reuben Grubbs. “In a letter written by Anderson Grubbs of Hanover, Va., dated 
3 Dec., 1824, to his brother Thomas Grubbs in Kentucky, he sends love to his 
brother Moody Grubbs and adds this postscript, 

“Rubin (?) sends his love to his brother Tom; says he hopes the Lord has pardoned 
his sins, and his wife also. If he never should see him in this world again, he hopes 
to meet him in a better one.” 

8 ^ Lucy Grubbs (Bush) d. April 1820. Death recorded in the family Bible.

THE HARRIS FAMILY 

I. The first known member of the family was Major Robert 
Harris (born 1630; died 1700), who emigrated from Wales during the 
period from 1652-1659, and settled on the James River, near Weyanoke, 
in Virginia. By some it is thought that he was employed in the tobacco 
house of a man named Rice, who soon died, and that Harris married 
his widow. At any rate about 1650 he married Mrs. Mary (Claibourne) 
Rice, whose mother was Elizabeth Butler, and her father, William Clai¬ 
bourne (b. 1587; d. 1676). (a) 

(William Claibourne came to Virginia in 1621, and was of royal descent. 
Through the De Toneys and Cliffords, he was descended from Edward III, 
King of England, Duncan and Malcom (5), Kings of Scotland, Odin and other 
kings of Escardia and Eric, King of the Goths 751 B. C. He was appointed 
Surveyor General at the solicitation of his cousin Ann, Countess of Pembroke. 
He was a member of the Virginia Council; Secretary of the Colony from 
1625-1635, and again from 1652-1660. In 1642 the king (Eng.) describing 
him as ^‘My well beloved servant,” appointed him Treasurer of the Colony 
for life. Four ancestors of William Claiborne signed the petition demanding 
of King John the Magna Charta.) (c) 

Robert^ Harris and Mary (Claiborne-Rice) Harris had a son: 

II. William^ Harris, b. 1652, who also engaged in the tobacco 
trade. He married Temperajice Overton, a daughter of Mary Walters 

and William Overton, a wealthy tobacco grower, the son of Colonel- 

Overton, who commanded a Brigade of Ironsides under Oliver Cromwell. 
William Harris died 8 Mar., 1687, at the age of 35, and was buried in an 
old Colonial Church at Weyanoke. A bronze tablet marked his burial 
place. The church long ago went to ruins, and on 1 July, 1875, the tab¬ 
let was taken to Norfolk, Va., and placed in the wall of St. Paul’s old 
church. The tablet is engraved as follows:— 

‘‘Here lyeth ye body of 
William Harris 

who departed this life ye 8th day of March, 1687 

Aged 35 years. 

On the 1st day of July, 1875, this stone and tablet was brought from 
Weyanoke, on the James River. It was found among ruins of an old Colonial 
Church.” 

To William^ Harris and his wife. Temperance Overton, were born three 
sons:— 

1® Christopher Harris, I. 

2® Overton Harris, m. Ann Nelson. 

33 Major Robert Harris, II, b. 168-; d. between 18 June, 1765 and 8 Aug., 1765. (His 
will is dated 18 June, 1765 and was probated 8 Aug., 1765.) M. Mourning Glenn. 
In 1750, he took up land in Brown’s Cove, Albermarle Co., Va., and was one of 
the early settlers on Doyle’s River. To him and his wife were born ten children, 
but we are interested particularly in:— 


( 34 ) 






532 


?^oone Jfamilp 


1^ Christopher Harris II, m. (1) Mary Dabney, and (2) Agnes McCord. He 
emigrated from Albermarle County, Va. to Ky., sometime in the period 
1780-1790. He travelled over a great part of Ky., and entered lands on 
the Licking River, but settled in Madison County, where he owned lands 
on Silver, Muddy, and Downing Creeks, in addition to a large body of 
land in Albermarle County, Va. He owned a large number of slaves that 
he had brought to Ky. 

(Mary Dabney, the first wife of Christopher Harris, was descended from 
Theodore Agrippa D’Aubigne, a French Huguenot, born 1550 in France. 
Her father was Cornelius D’Aubigne or Dabney [d. 1764 or ’65]. He 
was the eldest of three brothers, who after the Edict of Nantes, left France

THE LINCOLN FAMILY 

{The information contained in this sketch was all taken from the Ancestry 
of Abraham Lincolnby Les and Hutchison.) 

For many years nothing was known of the Lincoln family prior to 
their emigration to this country, from England, in 1637. Later, through 
the fortunate finding of some old court records, the family history was 
traced back to: 

I. Robert^ Lincoln, of Hingham Co., Norfolk, England, whose will, 
dated 1540, was probated 3 Sept., 1543; married Johan (Cowper?). Their 
son was: 

\ 

II. Robert^ Lincoln, of Hingham and Thetford, eldest son and 
heir of Robert (I); will dated 14 and probated 29 Jan., 1556; m. Margaret 
Alberye, and had a son: 

III. Richard^ Lincoln, of Hingham, Swanton Morley, and Great 
Witchingham, eldest son and heir of Robert (II), was under age in 
1556; buried 23 Dec., 1620; will dated 3 Jan., 1616, probated 24 Feb., 
1621; m. (1) about 1574, Elizabeth Remching, eldest daughter of Rich¬ 
ard Remching (d. 1567, buried in Carbrooke Church; Lord of Manor of 
Carbrooke) and his wife, Elizabeth (d. 1595, at Wymonham). Their 
second daughter was baptised 23 Sept., 1549, so' Elizabeth must have 
been born at least a year before that. She died soon after her marriage, 
leaving one son, Edward, and her husband, Richard, married three times 
more before his death. 

IV. Edward^ Lincoln, second son and heir of Richard (III) (the 
first son having died), of Hingham, b. abt. 1575; buried 11 Feb., 1640; 
married and left a son. 

V. Samuel^ Lincoln, of Hingham, England, Norfolk, and Hingham, 

Mass., the youngest son of Edward (IV), baptised 24 Aug., 1622; d. 26 
May, 1690, aged 71; m. Martha-(d. 10 Apr., 1693). He was appren¬ 

ticed to Francis Lawes, a weaver of Norwich, probably abt. 1633; sailed 
with his master to New England in the “John and Dorothey’’ of Ipswich, 
or in the “Rose’’ of Yarmouth. Landed in Boston 20 June, 1637. He 
had eleven children but we are interested only in: 

VI. Mordecai® Lincoln, the fourth son and child of Samuel (V), 
b. 14 June, 1657, at Hingham, Mass., where he resided until 1700, when 
he removed to Scituate. He was a “blacksmith”; m. 1st, Sarah Jones 
(daughter of Abraham and Sarah [Whitman] Jones, of Hull, Mass.); 
who died probably soon after their removal to Scituate; m. 2nd, Mary 
Gannett, a widow, who (d. 19 Apr., 1745, at the age of 79.) Mordecai 
Lincoln died very suddenly “of an apploplexy”, 8 Nov., 1727 in his 71st 
year. Will dated 3 May, 1727, probated 27 Mar., 1728. He had six 
children, of whom we are interested in:

or 600 acres of land. From there he moved to Coventry, Chester County, 
Pa., where he entered into partnership with Samuel Nutt, in the business 
of mining and forging iron, a business he had learned from his father. 
In 1725, he sold his interest in the business. In 1727, with Benjamin 
Boone, and others, he was appointed viewer of the Tulpehocken road 
from the Schuylkill River to Oley. Removed to Amity, where he died.

THE LINVILLE FAMILY 

The first of this family of whom we know, was William Linville, 
whose wife was Ellender Bryan, a sister of Colonel Samuel Bryan, William 
Bryan and others, and a daughter of Morgan and Martha (Strode) 
Bryan. (See the ‘^Bryan Family’’ for a further sketch.) 

The Linvilles lived in the Boone and Bryan settlement on the Yad¬ 
kin, coming to the Yadkin country with the Bryans from Va., but at 
what time is not known. 

William Linville’s health became poor, and hoping the change would 
benefit him, decided to go and keep camp for his son, John, and another 
young man, John Williams, who were going up into the mountains that 
fall (1766), to hunt for meat and pelts. They took several horses with 
them to use as pack animals, and pitched camp some fifty or sixty miles 
up in the Blue Ridge Mountains, 10 miles below Linville Falls. Just 
before daybreak one morning, William Linville roused the two jmung men, 
telling them he had just dreamed the Indians had come and massacred 
them. The dream was so real to him that he urged them to hasten to 
escape, saying he was too feeble to make the attempt. He had scarcely 
finished talking, and the young men had had no time to make any move 
toward escape, when the Indians, who must have been in hiding apd 
heard the conversation, poured in a volley of shot. The two Linvilles— 
William and his son, John— were both killed, and the other young man 
received a bullet in his thigh. This injured the bone, but did not break 
it, and in the darkness and confusion he escaped. 

Some time after the death of her husband, Mrs. Ellender (Bryan) 
Linville went to Kentucky to live with her children, and died there about 
1792, in Madison County. 

William^ and Ellender (Bryan) Linville had a number of children, 
the names of those known being:— 

V John Linville, who was killed by Indians at the same time as his father. 

2^ William Linville, who went to Kentucky to live, but never married. 

32 Morgan Linville, who married his cousin-Bryan, daughter of Colonel Samuel 

Bryan. He had a son: 

Coleman Linville, who lived near Strode’s Station, on Stoner Creek, in 
Clark County, Ky. 

4* Nancy or Ann Linville, m. about 1766, George Boone (b. 173-; d. 14 Nov., 1820), a 
son of Squire^ and Sarah (Morgan) Boone, and a brother of Daniel Boone. (See 
No. 27.)

THE MAYBERRY FAMILY 

In the library of the Historical Society of Berks Co., Pa., at Read- 
ing, there is a small collection of papers on the Boone family, among 
which are some notes written by Mr. Andrew Shaaber, at one time li¬ 
brarian of the Society. These notes state in part as follows: 

‘‘William Mayberry, father of Margaret, died Feb. 10, 1764. Married 

Ann-, who later married Richard Tea. William’s father was Thomas 

Mayberry of Douglass Twp. (died Mar. 10, 1747) and his mother was Sophia 

-. The children of William Mayberry and Ann his wife were Thomas, 

Charles, Andrew (d. unm.), Elizabeth (w. of Peter Ashton, merchant of 
Reading) and Margaret (m. Geo. Boone). See Orphan’s Court, Aug. 27, 
1782.” 

The entry in Orphan’s Court Records referred to above is as follows: 

“Orphan’s Court, Aug., 27, 1782. Petition of Peter Aston, Jr., of 
Reading, Merchant, and Elizabeth his wife, of full age. That Wm. Mayberry 
father of said Elizabeth, died intestate on or about Feb. 10, 1764, leaving a 
widow Anne (since married to Richard Tea) and 5 children, to wit., Thomas, 
Charles, Andrew, Elizabeth and Margaret (now wife of Geo. Boone). That 
shortly after Andrew also died intestate in his minority, unmarried and with¬ 
out issue. That the said Wm. Mayberry died seized of divers messuages, 
lands and tenements, situate in the Twp. of Hereford, Longswamp, Cole- 
brookdale and District in Berks Co., of about 3850 acres, whereof Richard 
Tea and Ann his wife are entitled to 1-3 for life of said Ann. Prays for 
partition. Court orders such partition, or if not possible, valuation, etc. 
Note, the property was divided among the heirs.” 

Also the following: 

“Orphan’s Court, Berk’s Co., Pa., Feb. 12, 1755; May 14, 1755; Feb. 

10, 1757. Thomas Mayberry of Douglass Twp. died Mch. 10, 1747. Wid. 
Sophia, Will am a son, and Catherine a daughter of Thomas, the wf. of Charles 
Jolly; and Dorothy and Thomas minor children. Thomas Mayberry, Sr., 
had one tract of 80 acres on which is now standing a furnace for smelting 
iron ore, and 10 other tracts aggregating about 3612 acres.” 

Combining the above with Boone records, we have:— 

I. Thomas Mayberry of Douglas twp., Berks Co., Pa., died 10 
March, 1749. Married Sophia-. Their son: 

11. William Mayberry, died 10 Feb., 1764. He married Ann-. 

Their children were, Thomas, Charles, Andrew, Elizabeth and Margaret, 
wife of George Boone (William''; George^, George^). 

William Mayberry’s widow remarried to Richard Tea, and had a 
daughter: Ann Tea, d. 23 Nov., 1821; married Thomas Boone {William^; 
George^; George^).

In connection with the Boone family there is also a Julian or Julia 
Anne Mayberry, who married Mordecai Lincoln {Anne^ Boone; James'^; 
George^). She is mentioned in the will of George Boone {William^'; 
George'^; George^) as his daughter Julian Lincoln. Possibly a relative of 
his wife’s whom they adopted. Concerning her there is also a record 
in the Orphans Court of Berks Co., Pa., page 201 as follows:— 

“Orphan’s Court, April 8, 1786, Petition of Richard Tea of Exeter, next 
friend to Julianna Mayberry, a minor under 14 years, that said minor is 
entitled to some estate in the lands of Judah Boone, etc. Prays for guard¬ 
ians. Court appoints Charles Mayberry.”

THE McCLURE FAMILY 

The McClures were a prominent pioneer family of Scotch descent. 
James McClure, the head of this line, went from Lancaster Co., Pa., 
to Northumberland Co., Pa., in 1772, and died there previous to 1778. 
He was several times elected member of the Committee of Safety for 
Wyoming Twp. Northumberland Co., particularly in 1770; and was one 
of three men elected to receive powder and lead and distribute them 
among the Captains of Col. Hunter’s Battalion. His farm adjoined that 
of Samuel Boone {Benjamin'^; George^), whose two daughters married 
sons of McClure. The homestead was called ‘‘McClure’s Choice” or 
“Beauchamp.” On this property was built Fort McClure, an important 
outpost of Fort Augusta, which was at the junction of the two branches 
of the Susquehanna River, below. On the site of Fort McClure a granite 
marker was placed in 1907 by the Bloomsburg chapter of the Daughters 
of the American Revolution. The marker stands about five or six rods 
from the river in the front yard of the homestead, a part of which is 
still preserved as a section of a modern dwelling. 

Mrs. James McClure, wife of the pioneer was a widow at the time of 
the Wyoming Massacre which occurred near here, and in which her bro¬ 
ther-in-law, Capt. Lazarus Stewart and a nephew of the same name 
lost their lives. The fugitive Stewarts went on a raft down the river 
Susquehanna to the mouth of Fishing Creek (near the McClure place), 
picked up the McClures and went on to Fort Augusta. 

Three of the children of James McClure were: 

12 Margaret McClure, married Lieut, (later Major) Moses Van Campen, an historic 
Indian fighter. It was he who built McClure’s Fort on his father -in-law’s farm. 

22 Josiah McClure, married 1st, Sarah Boone {Samuel^; Benjamin‘s; George^), who died 
1805; and 2nd, Mary Clark, by whom he had a large family. The will of Josiah 
McClure was administered in 1842. (See No. 165.) 

32 James McClure, born 1774; d. 4 Oct., 1850, aged 76; married Susanna Boone 
{Samuel^; Benjamin^' George^). The D. A. R. Chapter of Bloomsburg Pa., is 
named for him. He was the first white child born in that section. (See No. 164.)

THE MORGAN FAMILY 

Every effort had been made to learn something of the ancestry of 
Sarah Morgan, wife of Squire Boone, but without any a;ppreciable result. 

It is certain, of course, that Sarah’s father was Edward Morgan of 
Gwynedd, Philadelphia Co., Pa., as her marriage record shows that fact 
beyond all doubt. It is also reasonably certain that her brothers and 
sisters were the young Morgans whose marriage records, like her own, 
state that they were children of Edward Morgan of Gwynedd. Beyond 
these facts there is nothing authentic upon which to base any statement 
connecting Sarah (Morgan) Boone with any other Morgan family of 
record. 

There is an early record which states that “Edward Morgan and 
Elizabeth his wife, both free, arrived at Philadephia in the same ship 
(The Morning Star) from Liverpool, in the 9th month 1683 (20th 9th 
month).” (Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, Vol. 8, 
page 329.) 

Another Edward Morgan, recorded in Radnor Monthly Meeting, was 
born in Merionithshire, Wales, 25 Aug. 1679; was a son of Cadwalader 
Morgan, and came to Pennsylvania with his parents. (See page 607.) 

A third Edward Morgan is referred to by Thomas Allen Glenn in his 
“Welsh Founders of Pennsylvania,” Vol. 2, page 1, in which it is stated 
that Edward Morgan of near Bala Co., Merionithshire, a tailor, had a son 
named Morgan who removed to Gwynedd, Pa., about 1700 and was a 
freeholder of 800 acres of land in Gwynedd; died in Towamencin, 1727, 
leaving wife Dorothy. 

A fourth record of an Edward Morgan is found in “A History of the 
Family of Morgan, from the year 1089 to Present Times,” by James 
Appleton Morgan, New York (1897-1902). In this it is stated that Ed¬ 
ward Morgan was the son of Sir James Morgan, 4th Baronet of Llantar- 
num, and wife Lady Alice Hopton; that Edward came to America with 

his sister Sarah, wife of Stephen Beasley, married Margaret-and had 

a daughter Sarah Morgan who married Squire Boone. No authority is 
given for this last statement. In this book the ancestry is carried back 
through many royal lines to as early as the year 605. 

At this late date it seems impossible to determine which, if any, of 
the above Edward Morgans was the father of Sarah, and hence the grand¬ 
father of Daniel Boone. Although his ancestry, his early life and the 
name of his wife, may always remain in obscurity, we yet have a brief 
history of the later life and children of Edward of Gwynedd, as given 
in “Historical Collections of Gwynedd” by Howard Jenkins, page 410. 
This history of Edward Morgan reads as follows:— 

“The first settler in Gwynedd or its vicinity named Morgan, was Edward. 

He seems to have been here as early as 1704, as the road upward through 






^UteD Jf atnilies 


543 


Gwynedd, made in that year, was to go as far as his place. He was a tailor 
by trade, a Welshman by birth, no doubt, and was probably advanced in 
years when he came. He had lived previously near Philadelphia. In 
February, 1708, he bought 300 acres of land in what is now Towamencin, 
of Griffith Jones, merchant, Philadelphia. The tract lay along William John’s 
land, and was therefore on the township line. In 1714 he bought 500 acres 
more, nearby, of George Claypool of Philadelphia, who, like Griffith Jones, 
was a speculative holder of Towamencin lands. By 1713 he had apparently 
moved to Montgomery; in the deed from Claypool he is described as ‘yeoman, 
of Montgomery.’ 

“Edward Morgan no doubt had several children. His sons probably 
received and held the Towamencin lands. In the list of 1734, for that 
township there appear: Joseph Morgan, 200 acres; Daniel Morgan, 200; John 
Morgan, 100. In 1727, Morgan Morgan of Towamencin, died leaving a 
will, in which he mentions his wife Dorothy, his brothers Joseph, John and 
William, his two sons Edward and Jesse (both minors) and his niece Eliz¬ 
abeth, John’s daughter.” 

Jenkins includes in this article a list of seven Morgan marriages, 
all of which were probably of sons and daughter of Edward Morgan. 
They were:— 

1710. Elizabeth Morgan, married Cadwallader Morris. 

1713 Margaret Morgan, married Samuel Thomas. 

"1718. Daniel Morgan, married Elizabeth Roberts. 

1720. Sarah Morgan, married Squire Boone. 

1721. John Morgan, married Sarah Lloyd. 

1728. Joseph Morgan, married Elizabeth Lloyd. 

1731. William Morgan, widower, married Cath. Robeson. 

It is also stated in the above history that Daniel Morgan who 
married Elizabeth Roberts, was a minister among the Friends. He died 
6 July, 1773. A memorial concerning him says that he was born in the 
district of Moyamensing (Philadelphia) in 1691, but that while still 
young his parents moved to Gwynedd, then just being settled. 

A search of the records of Radnor Monthly Meeting to which the 
Morgans belonged, revealed the following records, in each of which, one 
contracting party is named as a son or daughter of Edward Morgan:— 

3-1, 1713. Marriage of Samuel Thomas of Montgomery, Co. of Phila., 
and Margret Morgan, dau. of Edward Morgan of the twp. and co. afore¬ 
said; witnessed by Edward, Elizabeth, William, John, Daniel, and Edward

9-8, 1728. Marriage of Joseph Morgan, son of Edward of Gwynedd, 
Co. of Phila., and Elizabeth Lloyd, daughter of Thomas. Witnessed (among 
others) by Squire Boone, Edward Morgan, William, John, Dorothy and 
Sarah Morgan. 

The records of Gwynedd Monthly Meeting contain this marriage 
9-2, 1718. Daniel Morgan, son of Edward, adjacent Gwynedd, yeoman, 
and Elizabeth Roberts, dau. of Robert dec’d of Gwynedd, at Gwynedd Meet¬ 
ing House. Witnesses, Edward, William, John, Morgan and Joseph Morgan, 
and others. 

In addition to the above marriages we find, of course, the marriage 
of Sarah Morgan herself to Squire Boone in 1720. In this marriage 
the witnesses named Morgan were Edward, Elizabeth, William, John, 
Daniel, Morgan, Joseph, Dorothy, and a second Elizabeth, the two last 
named probably being the wives of Sarah^s brothers. Other witnesses 
were Elizabeth Morris (probably Sarah’s sister) and Samuel Thomas 
(probably her brother-in-law). See page 591. 

We were unable to find record of the marriage of Elizabeth Morgan 
to Cadwalader Morris, 1710, which Mr. Jenkins refers to. Morgan 
Morgan, the brother who witnessed so many of these marriages, was 
probably married before the Morgans came into this section. The name 
Elizabeth coming after that of Edward Morgan among some of these 
witnesses, indicates that Elizabeth might have been the wife of ‘‘Edward 
of Gwynedd.” 

It has been stated that one of Sarah Morgan’s brothers (a son of Ed¬ 
ward) was the father of General Daniel Morgan of Revolutionary fame. 
There seems reason to doubt this, as Daniel Morgan’s biographer, James 
Graham, who wrote “Life of General Daniel Morgan of the Virginia Line” 
(New York, 1856), states that Morgan’s parentage was unknown, and that 
General Morgan himself never mentioned his family or parents to his friends 
and associates. It would be interesting to know that these two famous 
fighters of the Revolutionary period, Daniel Morgan and Daniel Boone, 
were first cousins, but we have found no adequate proof of this connection.

THE SCHOLL FAMILY 

William Scholl of England and wife Leah Morgan were the parents 
of two brothers who married into the Boone family. The ancestry of 
William Scholl remains wrapped in obscurity, as careful investigation 
fails to reveal any definite information concerning it. The ancestry of 
his wife, Leah Morgan, seems just as difficult to trace. 

There is a theory that William Scholl’s parents were Peter Scholl 
and wife Sarah Colyer. Peter Scholl lived in the Raritan district of 
New Jersey from 1714 to 1731, and then disappeared from that region 
leaving no trace. Sarah Colyer was a Scotch woman and apparently 
his second wife. To them were born two children, Deborah, in 1728, 
and William, in 1731. The family tradition is that William married a 
Leah Morgan. In Virginia also, appears some record of a Scholl family. 
From records it is found that as early as 1742, and perhaps as early as 
1738, Jaist (or Joist) Hite and a Peter Scholl were associated with each 
other in the Shenandoah Valley. Hite recruited in New York, New 
Jersey, and eastern Pennsylvania for his southern colonies, and hence 
may have induced Peter Scholl to leave New Jersey and settle in the 
Shenandoah Valley, (a) 

There is, however, no definite record to connect this Peter Scholl 
with the family that we know. It is only the result of an investigation 
which may prove of interest to Scholl descendants. 

To return to William Scholl and wife Leah Morgan, it has been 
learned that they had several children, who were:— (6) 

Peter Scholi, b. 15 Sept. 1754; d. 11 Sept., 1821, when he lacked four days of being 
67 years old; married about 1782, Mary Boone, daughter of Edward Boone and niece 
of Daniel Boone. For their history and descendants see Mary Boone, No. 132. 

2^ Joseph Scholl, b. 1755; d. 1835; married Levina Boone, daughter of Daniel Boone 
the Kentucky pioneer. For their history and descendants see Levina Boone, No.104. 

3^ John Scholl, m.-Morris. 

4? Sarah (Sally) Scholl, m. Samuel Shortridge. 

5^ Elizabet'h Scholl, m. Arnold Custer. 

6^ Rachel Scholl, m. David Benton. 

72 Aaron Scholl. 

8^ Isaac Scholl. 

9^ Abraham Scholl, b. 1765; d. 1851; married 1st, Nellie Humble, and 2nd, Tabitha Noe. 
There were ten children by each wife. He related to his nephew Joseph Scholl, 
Jr., son of Joseph and Levina (Boone) Scholl, that he took part in the Battle of 
Blue Licks, and that Col. Daniel Boone's wing fought longer than the other two. 
He a,lso told that Israel Boone, son of Daniel, could have escaped, but stayed to 
to protect his father and was killed, (c) 

Abraham Scholi moved to Illinois in 1816, and died there in Pike County. 

Some claim that there were two other children, 

10^ Jacob Scholl, who died in infancy, and 
IP William Scholl.

THE SPURGEON FAMILY 

This family is distinctive because of the fact that it is the ancestress 
rather than the ancestor who is of especial interest, to us. They do not 
go back particularly far in point of time, for the first we hear of them is 
that William Spurgeon came from England as early as 1756, and settled 
in North Carolina. 

In ‘‘The Loyalists of the American Revolution” (Sabine), Vol. 2, 
page 325, it is stated that William Spurgeon of North Carolina was a 
Major in Boyd’s Corps (British). While he was a Tory and British 
officer, his wife was just as staunch a Whig, and it is because of her 
patriotism and the assistance she gave General Greene, that any of her 
descendants are eligible to D. A. R. or S. A. R. 

General Greene with but few men and little baggage, took the road 
from Trading Ford to Martinsville, where he had directed General Huger 
to meet him with the main body of the army. 

When he came to Abbott’s Creek Meeting-House, he stopped two or 
three days to rest his troops and await developments. He selected as 
headquarters, the house of William Spurgeon, who was in good circum¬ 
stances, and lived about a mile from the church. Spurgeon was a Major 
in the British Army, having received his commission about the beginning 
of 1776 from Governor Martin, and so was not at home “to receive his 
guest and treat him to the best he had.” Nothing daunted, his wife 
Mary Jane Spurgeon received General Greene and did everything in her 
power to make him comfortable and give him encouragement, sorely 
needed in those times. 

The first thing General Greene did was to choose his battle ground, 
should Cornwallis overtake him and force him to fight, telling Mrs. 
Spurgeon that in that event she must take her children and hide in the 
cellar until the fight was over. Not having heard anything about Corn¬ 
wallis’ movements since he had left Trading Ford, General Greene be¬ 
came anxious and wished to send out a scout to find out where and what 
Cornwallis was doing. 

Not knowing any other way to get such information, he asked Mrs. 
Spurgeon if she knew of any one whom he could trust enough to send 
back to the river to learn about Cornwallis’ movements. She told him 
that he could rely absolutely on her son Joe, who at that time must 
have been quite a small lad, for in the census of 1790 he was still under 
16. On being asked a second time if she thought Joe could be relied 
upon, she answered, “Yes, Sir, you can put confidence in Joe if he will 
consent to go—and I think he will.” (Evidently the lady was in the 
habit of being obeyed.) 

Joe was called, put on General Greene’s own horse—a fine one, and 
told to go to Trading Ford, and there learn all he could about the 






^lUeb jFamiUes 


549 


British Movements. If he saw or heard nothing there, he was to go 
the river a number of miles to see if he could learn something there. 

He set off promptly, but could learn nothing at Trading Ford and 
as ordered went up the river, but with no better success. 

Back home he went to tell General Greene how far he had gone, 
but without getting any information. General Greene, knowing the 
absolute necessity of having this information immediately, sent him out 
the second time with instructions, if necessary, to go up the river to 
Shallow Ford, some 30 miles away. At Shallow Ford Joe found the 
British were crossing, and he went back as fast as his horse could go to 
warn General Greene. 

At once General Greene set out for Martinsville, reaching there on 
the evening of the 7th, to find General Huger with the main body of 
the army had just a^rrived. (a) 

Thus did Mrs. Spurgeon, by her offer to sacrifice her son if it were 
necessary, serve her country; and her descendants are justified in being 
proud of her. 

We do not know how many children Mrs. Spurgeon had, but we do 
know of these three: 

1^ Joe Spurgeon. 

2 ^ Sarah Spurgeon, who married Absolom Williams, and had nine children, one of whom 
was: 

1 ® Eliza Jane Williams, who married William N. Berry {Hettie"^ Boone Gopher; 
Elizabeth^ Boone; Georg^; Squire*; George^). See No. 1238. 

3^ Jane Spurgeon, b. 9 Nov., 1814; d. 27 Apr,, 1895; m. 14 Apr., 1833, Haley Brown 

b. 20 Dec., 1805; d. 9 July, 1866). To them was born: 

V Henry Clay Brown, b. 9 Apr., 1854; m. between 1875 and 1880 Mrs. Nannie 
{Berry) Williams {Hettie^ Gopher; Elhabelh^ Boone; George^; Squire*; 
George^). See No. 1242, 

Reference:— 

(a) Carruther’s History (1856), page 38-42, gives a much more detailed account of 
this incident.

THE STONER FAMILY 

{Compiled by Miss Bess Hawthorne, LaPlace, Illinois) 

Originally the name was Holsteiner, but later was abbreviated. 

Peter and John Leonhardt Holsteiner were born at or near Zwei- 
brucken, in what is now Rheinish Bavaria, in Germany. They belonged 
to a large body of Palatinates, who emigrated to England, and early 
in 1710, again emigrated to the Province of New York. Here, after 
hewing out homes in the wilderness, they were robbed of all their lands, 
by the governor and others, under pretext of unsound title. 

They emigrated from Schoharie, N. Y., to the Tulpehocken, Pa., 
in 1728. In the membership list of the Tulpehocken Lutheran Church 
from 1743-1745, appear the names of Peter and John Leonhardt Hol¬ 
steiner. Of Peter, nothing has been found since the mention of his name 
in the church record. There are some vague traditions that he settled 
in southwestern Virginia, and that Holston River was named after him. 

In March, 1752, John^ Leonhardt Holsteiner obtained a tract of 300 
acres of land in Heidleburg Township, near Millback, now in Lebanon 
County, from Peter Weiser and others, part of this land being held today, 
by members of the family bearing the name of Holstein. In this in¬ 
strument, he appears as Leonard Holsteiner, having dropped the first 
name, and the ^‘H’^ out of the second. His wife^s name was Barbara. 
Nothing is known of her, or of the death of either of them, except that 
they died sometime previous to 1758. 

I. Leonard^ Holsteiner had a number of daughters and two sons— 
George and George Michael. The county records show, that in 1758, 
George Holsteiner made application to have the real-estate appraised to 
him, as his father had died intestate, and he wished to take the land. 
On 5 June, 1759, George Holsteiner received a deed from Laurence Bau- 
sam and his wife, Philipina, the latter being the only one of George’s 
sisters, who appeared to be of age at that time. 

After this transaction, the name appears to be changed to Holstein 
in all other papers, (a) 

II. George^ Michael Holstein, who later took the name Stoner by 
which he was ever after known, is of rather more than usual interest to 
us, because he and Daniel Boone were such good friends and companions. 
Some writers speak of them as being kinsmen, but so far their relationship, 
if any existed, has not been traced. 

George^ Michael Stoner, or as he was more familiarly known, Michael 
Stoner, was the second son of Leonard^ and Barbara Holstein. He was 
born in 1748 (6), on the Schuylkill River, near what is now Philadelphia, 
and was only four or five years old when his parents died. 

As a youth, he was apprenticed to a saddler in Hickory-town (now 
Lancaster) but was not of a disposition to spend his life sitting at a 





^Uiet Jf amilicsi 


551 


saddler's bench. When about sixteen, following a quarrel with his mas¬ 
ter, he left his home in Berks County (now Mill Creek, Lebanon County) 
and went to New River, Va., where he became acquainted with Daniel 
Boone at a public gathering. This was the beginning of a friendship 
and companionship that lasted throughout their lives. 

These two planned an expedition into the then unknown wilds of 
Kentucky, and, getting a small party together, arrived at Cumberland 
Gap without any special adventures, but while passing through the Gap 
were fired on by Indians in ambush, and several of the party killed. All ex¬ 
cept Boone and Stoner turned back, but they pushed on, until they came to 
a section of country which abounded in game. Here they made their 
first headquarters at a place which later became known as Crab Orchard, 
so named from the grove of wild crab apple trees found growing there. 

It seems that Boone and Stoner separated here, each going his own 
way. Stoner went on to Louisville (The Falls of the Ohio), where he 
made a short stay, and then pushed on to the Cumberland River. Down 
this river he went as far as Nashville, where he met Boone and they went 
back to Virginia together. 

In 1774, Governor Dunmore of Virginia commissioned Boone and 
Stoner to warn a surveying party in Kentucky of the Indian outbreaks. 
They made the trip from the Clinch River in Virginia to the Falls of the 
Ohio, a journey of 800 miles, in sixty-two days. 

In the spring of 1775, Stoner joined Boone in marking and cutting 
out the road to Fort Boonesborough, which he helped build and defend. 
At the siege of Boonesborough he was wounded, but his uncle. Colonel 
William (Billy) Bush, held the Indians off so that he finally gained the 
fort. The Indians wished to take him prisoner instead of killing him, so 
did not fire on him and Bush. 

In 1780, he went on a visit to North Carolina, and took part in the 
Battle of King’s Mountain. 

At the Battle of Blue Licks, Stoner was wounded and fell from his 
horse. He hid in the bushes until next day, when he was rescued by 
General Logan’s forces. He was present at the taking of Vincennes by 
General Clark, and may have been with him in all his campaigns. He 
went on a campaign with Hardin, and was out with Logan in 1786. It 
is thought he went out under his uncle, Colonel William Bush, on Har- 
mer’s campaign also. 

About 1786, he was married to Frances Tribble, a daughter of Rev¬ 
erend Andrew Tribble and his wife, Sarah Ann Burris. (See the Burris- 
Tribble Family Sketch.) She was born 3 Nov. 1769; d. 11 May, 1852. (6) 

After their marriage, Stoner and his wife settled in Clarke Co., five 
miles southeast of Winchester, where their oldest child George Washing¬ 
ton Stoner, Sr., was born. In 1797 they moved to the Cumberland 
River in Pulaski County, and eventually to Wayne County, near Monti- 

cello. 





552 


®f)e Poone jFamilp 


Stoner's Fork of Licking River was named from Michael Stoner's 
having made his pre-emption and settlement on that stream, about 
five miles south of Paris, in Bourbon County. 

In about 1808 or 1810, Daniel Boone, who had moved to Missouri, 
sent word asking Stoner to come to visit him. In the meantime settlers 
had been coming in too closely and settling too near to suit Stoner, so 
he tried to persuade his wife to move to Missouri. This she would not 
do, so he decided to go alone. When he got to Missouri he met Boone 
and they started up the Missouri River hunting and trapping. Boone 
took sick and turned back, but Stoner kept on. He went up river 1600 
miles above any habitation, part of the time alone, part of the time with 
company, and once for four or five months he saw no white man. Coming 
back he visited with Boone, and after two years absence returned to 
Kentucky. This trip was his last hunt, (d) 

He died on 3d September, 1815 (6), and is buried near Monticello, 
Wayne County, Ky., where his grave was marked only by a crude stone. 

To him and his wife were born a number of children, three of whom, 
and a grandson, all married Boone descendants and reared large families. 
Their children were:— 

V George Washington Stoner, Sr., b. 25 Oct., 1787; d. 20 June 1871; m. 1812, his cousin, 

Nancy Tribble (Mary^ Boone; George^; Squirt; George^), b. 20 Aug., 1794; d. 6 Dec.,

THE TALLMAN FAMILY 

{Compiled from ‘^The Descendants of Thomas Durfee of Portsmouth 
Rhode Island ” by William F. Reed, Vol. L) 

I. Peter Tallman, the pioneer ancestor of this family, was a 

resident of Rhode Island. He married (1st) Ann-from whom he 

was divorced, and (2nd) in 1665, Joan Briggs. He was in Newton, Long 
Island, New York, as early as June 27, 1651; in 1665 was on the roll of 
Freemen of Newport, Rhode Island; and in Dec., 1658 he bought two 
pieces of land in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, where he settled permanent¬ 
ly. He was a Solicitor of the Colony of Rhode Island in 1661; in the 
same year and that following was a Commissioner of the towns of War¬ 
wick and Portsmouth; and from 1662 to 1665 was a member of the Gen¬ 
eral Court. 

II. Benjamin Tallman, son of Peter Tallman and second wife Joan 
Briggs, was born 28 June, 1684, in Portsmouth, R. I.; died 20 May, 
1759, in Warwick, R. I. He married (1st) 23 Sept., 1708, in Portsmouth, 
Patience Durfee (b. in Portsmouth, R. I.; died 1723 in same place), 
daughter of Thomas Durfee and 2nd wife Deliverance (Hall) Tripp. 

(Thomas Durfee, father of Pa!tience, was born in England, 1643; died 
in Portsmouth, R. L, July, 1712. He was a resident of Portsmouth prior to 
1664; was a member of the Colonial General Assembly of Rhode Island, 
1664; was town Constable in 1690, and Deputy in 1691; in 1692-94 was a 
member of the town council. Name of his first wife is unknown. His 
second wife. Deliverance, was widow of Abiel Tripp and daughter of William 
and Mary Hall.) 

After the death of his first wife, Benjamin Tallman married (2nd) 
in 1724, Deborah Cook. His will was proven 13 Aug., 1759; wife Deborah 
Tallman, executrix. In the will he mentions his wife; sons Benjamin, 
William and James; daughters Mary Fish, Deliverance Sisson, Patience 
Tallman, and Sarah Godfrey; and granddaughters Bethia and Freelove 
Tallman. 

III. William Tallman, son of Benjamin Tallman and first wife 
Patience, was born 25 March, 1720 at Portsmouth, R. I.; died 13 Feb., 
1791, on his farm near Harrisonburg, Va. He married 20 Oct., 1740-2 
in Berks Co., Pa., Ann Lincoln (b. 8 March, 1725, probably in Chester 
Co., Pa.; died 22 Dec., about 1812 on the fa^m near Harrisonburg, Va.), 
daughter of Mordecai Lincoln and first wife Hannah Salter. (See sketch 
of Lincoln Family.) 

William Tallman was by trade a weaver, although he followed the 
occupations of inn-keeper and farmer as well. He early settled in Berks 
Co., Pa., where he bought part oif the Lincoln land and others, and was a 
property owner in Reading, Pa. Later he joined his friends and neigh-

bors, the Boones, Lincolns and Hentons, in their general migration south, 
and settled near the Lincolns in Augusta Co., Va., now Rockingham Co. 
The family Bible of William Tallman descended to Benjamin, sole heir, 
and through him passed down to the great-great-great-grandchildren fof 
first owner in a well-preserved state; later it was much damaged by fire. 
Originally it contained marriages and other data relating to several gener¬ 
ations, being the fullest record found in a single Bible which has come to 
our knowledge among the Boone-Lincoln descendants. This book and the 
Friends' Meeting reliable records were the chief sources of information 
regarding early members of the Benjamin Boone line. 

IV. Benjamin Tallman, son of William and Ann (Lincoln) Tallman, 
was born 9 Jan., 1745, in Berks Co., Pa.; died 4 June, 1820, near Canal 
Winchester, Ohio; married 9 Nov., 1764, in Berks Co., Pa., Dinah Boone 
{Benjamin^, George^). Their descendants and history are given under 
Dinah Boone, No. 45.

THE VAN BIBBER FAMILY 

Two brothers, Peter and Isaac Van Bibber, were natives of Holland 
who came to America before the Revolution and settled in Botetourt 
County, Virginia. Later they both lived in Greenbriar County, Virginia. 

Peter^ Van Bibber, who was probably the eldest of the two 
brothers, married Margary Bounds, and lived at the mouth of the Big 
Kanawha River. He died probably before September, 1799 (see page 127). 
and his widow went to live with one of their sons in Ohio, on the Ohio 
River opposite the mouth of the Big Sandy. This son was probably the 
eldest, Peter, Jr., as it is stated in an old record that Nathan Boone, who 
married Olive VanBibber, went to claim his bride at the mouth of Little 
Sandy, “where Mr. Peter Van Bibber then lived.(Draper Mss. 6 S 
118-254.) The father having died previously, this must have been the 
younger Peter Van Bibber, with whom his mother and sister made their 
home. The children of Peter Van Bibber and wife Margary were:— 

B Peter Van Bibber, Jr. 

2* Jesse Van Bibber. 

3* Jacob Van Bibber. 

4’ James Van Bibber. 

5^ Joseph Van Bibber. 

6 * Matthias Van Bibber. 

7* Nancy Van Bibber. 

8 “ Sophronia Van Bibber. 

9* Ellen Van Bibber. 

10 ^ Olive Van Bibber, bom in Greenbriar Co., Va., 13 Jan., 1783; married Nathan 
Boone {Daniel^; Squire*; George^). See No. 109. 

IsAAC^ Van Bibber, brother of Peter, was captain of a Virginia com¬ 
pany of militia, and was killed at the battle of Point Pleasant in 1774. 
He left a widow and four children, at least one of whom, Isaac, Jr., 
was a very small child at the time of their father^s death. The children 
of Isaac Van Bibber were:— 

1’ John Van Bibber. 

2® Peter Van Bibber. 

3* Isaac Van Bibber, Jr., born in Greenbriar Co., Va., 20 Oct., 1771; married Elizabeth 
Hays {Susannah^ Boone; Daniel^; Squire*; George^). See No. 347. 

4* Rebecca Van Bibber. 

The wife of Jesse Boone {Daniel^ Squire^; George^) was named Chloe 
Van Bibber (b. 1772) and is said to have been a daughter of James and 
Samoa Van Bibber. Her relationship to the above family cannot be stated.

THE VAN CLEVE FAMILY 

Aaron^ VanCleve, the earliest known member of this family, was of 
Low Dutch descent, and a native of New Jersey, (a) 

In the Court House at Salisbury, Rowan County, North Carolina, 
is the original record of the deed by which Daniel Boone transferred 640 
acres of land to Aaron VanCleve for the sum of 80 pounds, “proclamation 
money of North Carolina.’^ This deed is dated 21 February, 1764, and 
was proved and recorded in the April (1764) Court. It is signed by 
Daniel Boone and Rebecca Boone, who made her mark; witnessed by 
Thomas H. Holman, Samuel Baily, who made his mark, and Benjamin 
VanCleve. The County Clerk was John Hiscock. The deed describes 
the land, which was the first home of the Boones in the “Forks of the 
Yadkin,’^ and shows the transfer of this tract, on the 29th of December, 
1753, from the original grant by the “Right Honorable John” Earl of 
Granville to Squire Boone. On the 12th of October, 1759, Daniel Boone 
“Planter” bought this tract from his father for 50 pounds. 

At some time Aaron VanCleve must have moved to Kentucky, for 
we find that in the fall of 1787 (b) Joseph Carman, Vincent Robbins, and 
Aaron VanCleve started out from some one of the stations. Squire Boone’s, 
Whittaker’s or Well’s, to hunt buffalo. When they were in west of 
Drennon’s Lick, they unexpectedly met a small party of Indians, who 
fired on them. VanCleve had a finger and a part of the breech of his 
gun shot off, but he and Robbins managed to escape, and get to the 
settlements on the Bullskin and Brashear’s Creeks. A party was raised 
under the leadership of Robbins to pursue the Indians. They went to 
the spot where Carman was last seen, and finding blood on the ground, 
followed that trail about 200 yards to a camp where they found Carman’s 
body, dismembered and hung about on saplings. They gathered it up 
and took it back to Well’s Station, his home, for burial. 

We do not know who the Benjamin VanCleve was, who is mentioned 
above as a witness to the deed. He may have been a brother, cousin, son, 
or possibly the father of Aaron. 

Of Aaron’s wife nothing is known, but we do know that when they 
moved from New Jersey into the Yadkin country the family consisted of 
father, mother, seven sons and one daughter, (a) The name of the 
daughter and those of two of the sons are known to be:— 

1* Jane VanCleve, b. 16 Oct., 1749, in New Jersey; m. in the Yadkin country on 8 
Aug., 1765, to Squire Borne {Squire*; George^); and d. 10 Mar,, 1829, at the home of 
her son, Enoch Morgan Boone, “at the mouth of Otter Creek, Ky.” (a) For 
further details see the sketch of Squire Boone (brother of Daniel Boone) No. 29. 

2* Ralph or Rutliff VanCleve (whose name is given in the two different ways, so it is 
not known which is correct) had a daughter, Betsey VanCleve, who, when she was 
about 20, was killed by Indians on the 23 May, 1790, when returning from Church. 
Miss VanCle\ e ran over a quarter of a mile before the Indians overtook and cap- 






558 


®f)e Poone Jfamilp 


tured her. She was tomahawked and scalped, and though still living when found 
was insensible and died very soon after. A complete description of this Indian 
fight is given in the sketch on Moses Boone, son of Squire, and a nephew of Daniel 
Boone. (See No. 139.) 

3* John VanCleve, (b) married and had at least five children. In the Indian battles of 
Boone's and Floyd's Defeats, on the 14th and 15th September, 1781 (of which com¬ 
plete descriptions are given in the sketch of Isaiah Boone, son of Squire, and a 
nephew of Daniel Boone), his wife and two small children were killed. His daughter 
Rachael, about 18, and her small sister whom Rachael carried in her arms, were 
captured by the Indians on the first day, but later were rescued, unharmed. Be¬ 
sides these children there was a son Benjamin, then about 10, who, while crossing 
Floyd's Fork, about two miles from Long Run, at Floyd's Defeat on the second 
day, fell off the horse into the water. At this place the water was rather deep, but 
he had enough presence of mind to catch hold of a horse's tail and hold on until 
safe on the other side. (5) 

Some time after the death of his wife, John Van Cleve married a Mrs. Riker, whose 
husband was killed at this same battle of Floyd's Defeat. (6) 

Of the other children of Aaron VanCleve nothing is known.

A Biographical Sketch of 
DANIEL BOONE, the pioneer 

by 

JESSE PROCTER CRUMP, one of his descendants 






The men who build the towns forget the men who lead the way! 
The glory of the first-to-go is as a vanished day! 

But yet an urge is in our blood, a faith that conquers fear! 

The nation’s Sold inherits still from Boone the pioneer!

preface 

For a number of years, as one of the descendants of the subject 
of the following sketch, I have been collecting data for the purpose of 
preparing a genealogy of his descendants in order that a permanent 
record might be made for future generations from which they might 
trace their family history back to the man who was one of the founders 
of the State of Kentucky, as well as one of the first Americans to settle 
within the present limits of the State of Missouri. 

In the course of my correspondence with various persons throughout 
the United States, including County officials, Boone descendants and 
others, I came into communication with Mrs. James R. Spraker, a des¬ 
cendant of Samuel Boone, a brother of Daniel Boone, and the author 
of the Genealogy published herewith, to whom I turned over my genealog¬ 
ical data concerning Daniel Boone and his descendants, and in addition 
thereto have prepared the following sketch of the life of Daniel Boone. 

Recognizing that the various biographers of Daniel Boone have 
written a full history of his life as it relates to the part he took in the 

opening up of a way to, and the settlement of Kentucky, I have, there¬ 

fore, confined this sketch to such portions of his life as will be of special 
interest to his descendants, who may thereby be able to follow him from 
the cradle to the grave without having to read so much that pertains 
to the part he played in the opening up of the present State of Kentucky 
and the adjacent territory. 

With this end in view this sketch is presented to his descendants in 

the hope that they may realize the important part taken by him during 

and subsequent to the period of the War of the Revolution when every 
pioneer was compelled to carry his musket for the purpose of obtaining 
food for those dependent upon him and for the additional purpose of 
defending their lives and homes. 

The force and the worth of the character of Daniel Boone are being 
fully recognized today. The magic of his name inspired the savages 
of the frontier with awe and the settlers with courage and confidence. 
His presence and prowess along the border contributed more to the 
civilization of that section than that of any other man of his time, except 
Washington alone, who was two years and eight months his senior. It 
is a fact, susceptible of proof, that a larger number of biographies of 







562 


®f)c Poone jFamtlp 


Boone have been written and published than of any other American, 
except of Washington, his co-patriot. 

Each Boone descendant should be proud of the fact that he can trace 
his lineage to a man so prominent in the history of our country, and at 
the same time should strive to uphold the ideals of the country for which 
Daniel Boone struggled so long and faithfully. 

In the preparation of this sketch I have secured information from, 

(a) “History of Kentucky,'' by Lewis Collins. (1847, 1874)

The immediate ancestors of the American Boone family resided in 
the Village of Bradninch, about eight miles from the City of Exeter, 
in Devonshire, England. George Boone, the grandfather of Daniel Boone, 
was born in the year 1666 at Stoak, a village near the City of Exeter. 
His father had been a blacksmith but he became a weaver. He married 
Mary Maugridge, daughter of John Maugridge and Mary (Milton) Mau- 
gridge, who was three years his junior. This couple, professed Quakers, 
became the parents of nine children, all born in Bradninch, one of whom. 
Squire Boone, was the father of the subject of this sketch. 

George Boone, with his wife and children, emigrated to America, 
embarking from Bristol, England, on August 17, 1717, and arrived at 
Philadelphia on the 10th of October. In April, 1718, he acquired four 
hundred acres of land by entry and settled in Oley Township, Philadel¬ 
phia County, now Exeter Township, in Berks County, Pennsylvania; 
Exeter Township remained a part of Philadelphia County until March 
11, 1752, at which time Berks County was formed from parts of Lancaster 
and Philadelphia Counties, and included Exeter Township. The three 
original counties established by William Penn at the first settlement of the 
Province of Pennsylvania in 1682 were called Bucks, Philadelphia and 
Chester, Lancaster County being formed from Chester County on May 
10, 1729. 

Squire Boone, son of George and Mary (Milton) Boone, was born 
on the ‘‘Fourth day of the Week, between 11 and 12 in the Forenoon, on 
the 25th day of November, 1696.’’ The record of the monthly meeting 
of the Society of Friends, held at the hamlet of North Wales in Gwy¬ 
nedd Township, in Pennsylvania, shows, that 

“Squire Boone, son of George, of Philadelphia Co., yeoman, married 
to Sarah Morgan, daughter of Edward Morgan, of same county, at Gwynedd 
Meeting House, 7-13-1720.” She was a “sister to the father of Colo. Daniel 
Morgan of the Revolution Rifle Men.” 


In the year 1730 Squire Boone purchased from Ralph Ashton, by 
deed dated October 20, 1730, a tract of 158J acres situated in his 
father’s Township of Oley, in the then Philadelphia County, on the East 
side of the Schuylkill River, eight miles Southeast of the present City of 
Reading and a mile and one-half from Exeter meeting house. In the 


( 36 )

home established here Daniel Boone was born October 22, 1734. His 
biographers do not agree on the date of his birth, but the above date 
is given in his family Bible. This record should be regarded as final and 
conclusive evidence and should settle the question of the respective dates 
of his birth, marriage and death. James H. Boone, a great-great-grand¬ 
son of Daniel Boone, who has the Bible in his possession at this time, 
says that it was purchased by Daniel Boone several years previous to 
his death, and was given by him to his third son, Daniel Morgan Boone, 
who in turn, gave it to his son Daniel Boone, and at his death it was 
given to his son, the James H. Boone above referred to. 

In a sketch of ‘‘Colonel Daniel Boone” given in the Missouri edition 
of “The United States Biographical Dictionary and Portrait Gallery of 
Eminent and Self-Made Men,” published in 1878, (e) Daniel Boone, son 
of Daniel Morgan Boone states, “that the Bible referred to was the prop¬ 
erty of his grandfather. Colonel Boone; that the records therein were 
made under the old hunter’s personal supervision up to the time of his 
death, and that the subsequent records of the family have been care¬ 
fully kept in the same book, by James Boone, a son of Major Nathan 
Boone, and is the most reliable record of the family history in existence.” 

A photographic copy of the family record, as shown in said Bible, 
is published herewith, the pages being very much worn at this time and 
the ink faded, due, says Mrs. Lemuel Stevenson, a sister of James H. 
Boone, to the fact that said pages were taken from the Bible and buried 
during the latter part of the Civil War, in order that the Union soldiers 
might not learn the ages of the Boone boys and force them to take part 
in their depredations against the citizens along the Missouri and Kansas 
border immediately following the closing of the war. It is impossible, 
at this time to decipher the names and ages of all of Daniel Boone’s 
children as given in said Bible, but elsewhere in this sketch will be found 
their names and dates of birth taken from the “Biographical Dictionary” 
(e) hereinbefore referred to, the writing in said Bible being perfectly 
legible at the time of the writing of the “Biographical Dictionary” sketch 
from which we have secured the information relative to the dates of 
birth of the Boone children, and in addition thereto, have interviewed 
many of the Boone descendants and procured a verification of the dates 
hereinafter given. 

The records of the Exeter Monthly Meeting show that Daniel, son 
of Squire and Sarah Boone, was born “8-22-1734”; this being Julian or 
Old Style of reckoning time, the first month of the year being March, 
the eighth month would be October, making the date of his birth October 
22, 1734, same as shown in his Bible. The Gregorian Calendar, or New 
Style, was adopted in 1582,* but the year 1700 being a leap year in the 

*1582 was the year in which the New Style calendar was established by Papal decree in the 
Catholic countries of Europe. It was not adopted by Great Britain and her Colonies until Sept., 
1752.

Julian calendar and a common year in the Gregorian, the difference in 
the styles during the eighteenth century was eleven days. (Am. Encyc¬ 
lopedia Britannica, 9th Edition Vol. II, page 1227.) Hence by setting the 
Old Style date forward eleven days gives the New Style date of Daniel 
Boone’s birth as November 2, 1734, the date given by several of his biog¬ 
raphers. 

Squire Boone retained his land in Philadelphia County until April 
11, 1750 on which date he conveyed it to William Mogridge, and with 
his family of eleven children moved to North Carolina and settled on the 
banks of the Yadkin River near Holman’s Ford, in what was then Rowan, 
but now Davidson County; the home of the Boone family being on a high 
hill overlooking the Yadkin River at a point about eight miles from Wilkes- 
boro. The cabin occupied by them has been rebuilt by the ‘'Daniel 
Boone Memorial Association of North Carolina,” which Association was 
created by act of the General Assembly of North Carolina in the year 
1909, “with power to purchase and hold lands and other property, to 
erect suitable memorials, to solicit and collect funds, together with his¬ 
torical materials, and to do all such things as are necessary to perpetuate 
the memory of the life of Daniel Boone in North Caroliria.” At the 
time of the removal of Squire Boone, with his family, to North Carolina 
Daniel was sixteen years of age and helped in the working of his father’s 
farm and in the family smithy, for his father being a weaver and farmer 
was also a blacksmith. 

It was while living here that Daniel Boone received a common school 
education; from an inspection of letters written by him we find that 
he became a good penman, but was deficient in spelling, a deficiency 
common with the men of his generation, Daniel’s study hours having 
evidently been spent in the pursuit of the game which abounded in his 
neighborhood, rather than in the study of books. Daniel Bryan in a 
letter to Lyman C. Draper under date of February 27, 1843, states that 
Daniel Boone “never took any delight in farming or stock raising but 
followed hunting until he grew to manhood; he was about five feet eight 
or nine inches high, stout, strong made, light hair, blue eyes, yellow 
eye brows, wide mouth, thin lips, nose a little on the Roman order.” 
(k, 22 C 22) 

We find no record of the doings of Daniel Boone after the removal 
of the family to North Carolina, until the year 1755, when the British 
General, Edward Braddock, with George Washington upon his staff, 
attempted to drive the French and Indians from Fort Duquesne, in 
Pennsylvania. In the army under Braddock was a company of North 
Carolina frontiersmen under command of Captain Edward B. Dobbs; 
Daniel Boone was a member of this company as a wagoner and black¬ 
smith, he being at that time in the twenty-first year of his age. The 
engagement with the French and Indians resulted in the complete routing 
of Braddock’s forces on July 9, 1755, many of the Colonial and British 








566 


®t)c ?ioone Jfamilp 


troops, as well as Braddock himself, being killed. Daniel Boone escaped 
on the back of one of his wagon horses. 

A few years before Squire Boone moved to North Carolina, one Mor¬ 
gan Bryan, with a family of seven sons and one daughter, all grown, 
moved from Virginia to North Carolina and settled in the forks of the 
Yadkin River, at a place which was afterwards called “Bryan’s Settle¬ 
ment.” (k, 22C 22.) 

Joseph Bryan, the eldest of these sons, had several children, among 
whom were Rebeccah and Martha. Rebeccah, born January 9, 1739, be¬ 
came the wife of Daniel Boone; Martha became the wife of Edward Boone 
brother of Daniel. William Bryan, the sixth son of Morgan Bryan, 
married Mary Boone, sister of Daniel, the Boones and Bryans thus 
establishing a relationship from which have sprung numerous descendants 
now living in all parts of the United States. 

In order to settle the question of the parentage of Rebeccah Bryan, 
concerning which Boone’s biographers do not agree, we will endeavor to 
state sufficient facts with reference thereto so that no doubt may remain 
in the minds of his future biographers. Daniel Bryan, in his letter 
hereinbefore referred to, states that “Daniel Boone married Rebecka 
Bryan, daughter of Joseph Bryan.” Daniel Bryan, was a nephew of 
said Joseph Bryan and a son of William Bryan who married Mary Boone, 
and was given the name “Daniel” for Daniel Boone, the brother of his 
mother, Mary (Boone) Bryan. His testimony therefore should be taken 
as conclusive. 

From Draper Mss. 22-S-241, we find that “Samuel Boone, son of 
George Boone, who was a brother of Col. D. Boone, born in Hoy’s Sta¬ 
tion, Madison County, Kentucky, Jan. 15, 1782,” makes this statement: 
“Jos. Bryan, the father-in-law of Col. Daniel Boone, was a tall raw boned 
man—an old man when informant saw him about 1797.” 

From Draper Mss. 19-C-120, we find that Enoch M. Boone, born 
in Boonesborough October 16, 1777, son of Squire Boone a brother of 
Daniel Boone, states: “Old Joseph Bryan, Mrs. Daniel Boone’s father, in 
1798 rented Wells’ Station in Shelby—in a year or so he and his family, 
two sons and a son-in-law, bought land on Floyd’s Fork in Shelby County 
and there settled, and there old Joseph Bryan died about 1805.” 

By deed dated April 6, 1804, we find that one Mordecai Redd con¬ 
veyed to Joseph Bryan a certain tract of land on Floyd’s Fork, then in 
Jefferson County, said land now being in Oldham County which county 
was cut off of the Northeast corner of Jefferson County, in 1820. The 
deed therefor being shown of record in Jefferson County in Deed Book 7, 
at Page 178, bearing out the above statement of Enoch M. Boone as to 
the purchase by Joseph Bryan of land on Floyd’s Fork. Filson’s “Map 
of Kentucke,” drawn by John Filson in the year 1784, shows Floyd’s 
Fork as a tributary of Salt River running in a Southerly direction from 
the North central portion of the then Jefferson County. On this map

DANIEL BOONE’S RECEIPT FOR SHARE OF THE ESTATE OF JOSEPH BRYAN 
































Mmitl poone 


567 


Filson states: “While this Work shall live let this Inscription remain a 
Monument of the Gratitude of the Author to Col’s Dan’l Boon, Levi 
Todd & Jas. Harrod, Capt’s Christ’r Greenhoop, In’o Cowan & Wm. Ken" 
nedy Esq’rs of Kentucke: for the distinguished Assistance with which they 
have Honord him in its Composition: & a testimony that it has received 
the Aprobation of those whom he justly Esteems the best qualified to 
Judge of its Merit.” 

The Last Will and Testament of Joseph Bryan was probated in 
Jefferson County, Kentucky, on March 4, 1805; in said will he bequeaths 
to his wife Alee, “A gray mare, a bed and furniture and thirty dollars, 
either cash or property;. * * * j also give and bequeath unto my daughters 
MARTHA BOON and REBEKAH BOON the sum of twenty dollars 
each, either cash or property.*” With the papers of said estate is found 
the following receipt: 

“Received of Joseph Bryan, of Kentucky, Jefferson County, Twenty 
Dollars, it being the full amount of the estate left to me by Joseph Bryan, 
deceased, of the same State and County aforesaid. 

November 22nd, 1811. 

Test: Stephen W. Callaway. (Signed) DANIEL BOONE.” 

Daniel Boone and Rebeccah Bryan were married August 14, 1756, 
the ceremony being performed by Squire Boone who was then a Justice 
of the Peace for Rowan County, North Carolina. Their children were: 

I. James, born May 3, 1757. 

II. Israel, born January 25, 1759. 

III. Susannah, born November 2, 1760. (In the “Biographical 

Dictionary” [e] the date of the birth of Susannah Boone is 
given as November 2, 1760, while the Boone Bible gives 
the date as November 3, 1760; the Bible plainly shows that 
the day of her birth has been written in different ink from 
the original writing and the date changed. We, therefore, 
conclude that the date of her birth given in the “Biographi¬ 
cal Dictionary” [e] is the correct one.) 

IV. Jemima, born October 4, 1762. 

V. Levina, born March 23, 1766. 

VI. Rebecca, born May 26, 1768. 

VII. Daniel Morgan, born December 23, 1769. 

VIII. Jesse Bryan, born May 23, 1773. 

IX. William, born in June, 1775. Died in infancy. 

X. Nathan, born March 2, 1781. 

For a short time after their marriage Daniel and Rebecca occupied 
a log cabin on his father’s farm, but they soon acquired land of their own 
lying upon Sugar Tree, a tributary of Dutchman’s creek, in the Bryan

settlement, a few miles North of Squire Boone’s. Here they lived for 
several years. 

About the year 1759, the Yadkin valley was raided by Cherokee 
Indians and some of the Yadkin families, including Daniel and Rebecca 
Boone and their two sons, James and Israel, removed to Culpepper county 
in Eastern Virginia. There Daniel was employed with his wagon in 
hauling tobacco to Fredericksburg, the nearest market town. (i). 

In the year 1760 Daniel Boone became a member of a regiment of 
several hundred North Carolinians led by Colonel Hugh Waddell, that 
took part in the war against the Cherokees which brought about the 
treaty of peace which was signed November 19, 1761. Subsequent to the 
signing of the treaty he brought his family back to the Yadkin region. 

In Peck’s Life of Daniel Boone (/) we find that, ‘‘Immediately upon 
this adjustment of Indian affairs, several companies of hunters from 
Pennsylvania, Virginia and North Carolina, hearing of the abundance of 
game in the valleys along the head waters of the Tennessee River, pene¬ 
trated the wilderness in their favorite pursuit. At the head of one of 
these companies was Daniel Boone, from the Yadkin settlements, who 
ranged through the valleys on the head waters of the Holston, in the 
southwestern part of Virginia. In 1764 we find him, with another com¬ 
pany of hunters, on Rock Castle, a branch of Cumberland River within 
the present boundaries of Kentucky, employed, as he stated, by a party 
of land speculators, to ascertain and report concerning the country in 
that quarter.” 

In 1765 he explored as far South as Pensacola, Florida, but was 
dissuaded by his wife from settling there, (j) 

“In 1767, a backwoods hunter by the name of John Finley, with a 
few others like himself, made an excursion farther west than the previous 
hunting parties had gone, upon the waters of Kentucky River, where he 
spent the season in hunting and trading with the roaming bands of 
Indians. Their course lay through a portion of Tennessee, where every 
thing grand and picturesque in mountain scenery, or romantic and delight¬ 
ful in deep and sheltered valleys existed. They found an exuberant soil, 
from which sprang giant forests. They saw the rich cane brakes of 
Kentucky. To the hunter here seemed a terrestrial paradise, for it 
abounded with all kinds of game.” (/) 

Upon Finley’s return a party of six was formed for the purpose of 
exploring the country through which Finley had hunted. The party included 
Finley, Boone, a brother-in-law of Boone’s named John Stewart, and three 
other Yadkin settlers, Joseph Holden, James Mooney and William Cooley. 

The earliest authentic account of Daniel Boone is a brief sketch of 
a portion of his life, from 1769 to 1783, which was published in 1784 
by John Filson, who wrote it from t'he statements of the old pioneer, 
though it purports to be in the first person. In this sketch we find, in 
the language of Filson, to whom Boone dictated this part of his life: “It

was on the first of May in the year 1769, that I resigned my domestic 
happiness for a time, and left my family and peaceable habitation on the 
Yadkin River, in North Carolina, to wander through the wilderness of 
America, in quest of the country of Kentucky.” (/) 

In December, 1769, the party above referred to divided into smaller 
groups for convenience in hunting and exploring. Boone and Stewart 
formed one group, and on the 22d of the month they were made prisoners 
by a band of Shawnee Indians and were compelled to guide the Indians 
to their camp, where the Indians made prisoners of the rest of the party 
and plundered the camp of every thing they had, after which Boone and 
his entire party were released and ordered to leave at once. They were 
told by the Indians that they were trespassing on lands which belonged 
exclusively to the red men. Finley, Cooley, Mooney and Holden started 
for home, but Boone and Stewart refused to leave and decided to follow 
the Indians in an effort to recover their property. They succeeded in 
entering the Shawnee camp and secured four horses, but were again 
captured two days later. After being prisoners seven days they escaped; 
taking with them their guns and ammunition they continued hunting 
and in January, 1770, were joined by Squire Boone, brother of Daniel, 
and another hunter named Alexander Neely, who had left the settlements 
on the Yadkin for the purpose of finding Daniel Boone and his associates, 
and had brought with them supplies of powder and lead. 

The two Boones, Stewart and Neely continued their hunting; Daniel 
Boone and Stewart hunting together, separating during the day to meet 
at nightfall. One evening Stewart failed to appear at the appointed 
place whereupon the balance of the party made search for him, but were 
unable to find him. Five years afterward, while Boone was on a hunting 
trip in the same vicinity, he discovered in a hollow tree, a few human 
bones and a powder horn marked with Stewart’s name. Soon after 
Stewart disappeared, Neely started home leaving the two Boones. On 
the first day of May, 1770, Squire Boone left Daniel and returned to the 
Yadkin settlements with the furs they had collected. Squire returned in 
July and they spent some time in hunting and exploring. Squire again 
went home in October but returned before the end of the year; he and 
Daniel remained until the following March, 1771, when they started on 
their homeward journey with their pelts. On this journey they were 
captured by a band of Indians and robbed of all they possessed, but were 
permitted to proceed without further molestation. Daniel having been 
away from his family nearly two years, found, upon reaching home, that 
he had another son, Daniel Morgan Boone, born December 23, 1769, just 
seven months and twenty-two days from the day he started on the trip 
with Finley and his party. 

“For two and a half years after his return Boone quietly conducted 
his little farm, and, as of old made long hunting trips in autumn and 
winter, occasionally venturing, some times alone, some times with one

or two companions, far west into Kentucky, once visiting French Lick, on 
the Cumberland, where he found several French hunters. There is reason 
to believe that in 1772 he moved to Wautaga Valley, but after living 
there for a time went back to the Yadkin. Early in the following yea'^ 
he accompanied Benjamin Cutbirth and others as far as the present 
Jessamine County, Kentucky, and from this trip returned fired with 
quickened zeal for making a settlement in the new country. 

“The spring and summer were spent in active preparations. He en¬ 
listed the co-operation of Captain William Russell, the principal pioneer 
in the Clinch Valley; several of the Bryans, whose settlement was now 
sixty-five miles distant, also agreed to join him; and five other families 
in his own neighborhood engaged to join the expedition. 

“The Bryan party numbering forty men, some of them from the 
Valley of Virginia and PowelFs Valley, were not to be accompanied by 
their families, as they preferred to go in advance and prepare homes 
before making a final move. But Boone and the other men of the upper 
Yadkin took with them their wives and children; most of them sold their 
farms, as did Boone. Arranging to meet the Bryan contingent in Pow- 
elbs Valley, Boone’s party left for the West on September 25, 1773— 
fifty-six years after old George Boone had departed from England for the 
Pennsylvania frontier near Philadelphia, and twenty-three years after 
the family had set out for the new south west frontier on the Yadkin.” {i) 
Proceeding on their journey they were not molested until the tenth 
of October, 1773, when they were approaching a pass in the mountains 
called Cumberland Gap; the young men who were engaged in driving the 
cattle had fallen in the rear of the main body, were assailed by a party 
of Indians and six of their number killed, including James Boone, the 
eldest son of Daniel Boone. This so discouraged the company that all, 
except Boone and his family, returned to their former homes, while Boone 
and his family retraced their steps forty miles and stopped at Black- 
more’s Fort on the Clinch River in the south western part of Virginia. 

In the autobiography dictated by Daniel Boone to John Filson, and 
published in 1784, Boone says: 

“I remained with my family on Clinch until the 6th of June, 1774 
when I and one Michael Stoner were solicited by Governor Dunmore of 
Virginia to go to the falls of the Ohio to conduct into the settlements a number 
of surveyors that had been sent thither by him some months before; this 
country having about this time drawn the attention of many adventurers. 
We immediately complied with the Governor’s request, and conducted in the 
surveyors, completing a tour of eight hundred miles, through many difficul¬ 
ties, in sixty-two days. 

“Soon after I retqrned home, I was ordered to take the command of 
three garrisons during the campaign which Governor Dunmore carried on 
against the Shawanese Indians; after the conclusion of which, the militia 
was discharged from each garrison, and I, being relieved from my Dost, was 
solicited by a number of North Carolina gentlemen, that were about pur-

chasing the lands lying on the South side of Kentucky River, from the 
Cherokee Indians, to attend their treaty at Wataga, in March, 1775, to 
negotiate with them, and mention the boundaries of the purchase. This I 
accepted; and, at the request of the same gentlemen, undertook to mark 
out a road in the best passage from the settlement through the wilderness 
to Kentucky. 

‘T soon began this work, having collected a number of enterprising 
men, well armed. We proceeded with all possible expedition until we came 
within fifteen miles of where Boonesborough now stands, and where we were 
fired upon by a party of Indians that killed two, and wounded two of our 
number. This was on the 20th of March, 1775. Three days after we were 
again fired upon and had two men killed and three wounded. Afterward we 
proceeded on to Kentucky River without opposition and on the first of April 
began to erect the fort Boonesborough at a salt lick, about sixty yards from 
the river, on the south side. 

“On the fourth day the Indians killed one of our men. We were busily 
employed in building this fort until the fourteenth day of June following, 
without any further opposition from the Indians; and having finished the 
works, I returned to my family on Clinch. 

“In a short time I proceeded to remove my family from Clinch to this 
garrison, where we arrived safe, without any other difficulties than such as 
are common to this passage; my wife and daughter being the first white 
women that ever stood on the banks of Kentucky River.” 

When Boonesborough was organized as a town, Boone was made one 
of the trustees, and was also one of the six delegates elected from Boones¬ 
borough, on May 23, 1775, “for the purpose of legislation, or making and 
ordaining laws and regulations for the future conduct of the inhabitants” 
of Transylvania (a. Vol. 2 pg. 501.) a tract of land purchased from the 
Cherokee nation by a company formed by Colonel Richard Henderson, 
comprising more than one-half of the present State of Kentucky, (a. 
Vol. 2 pg. 337). 

While Boonesborough was not the first town in Kentucky we find 
that in June, 1774, Boone assisted in laying off the first inhabited town 
at Harrodstown, now Harrodsburg, on a fork of Salt River, now in Mercer 
county, he being, at that time, on his trip with Michael Stoner, here¬ 
inbefore referred to. 

On July 14, 1776, Boone's second daughter, Jemima, together with 
Elizabeth and Frances Callaway, daughters of Colonel Richard Callaway, 
were captured by a band of Indians while they were in a canoe on the 
Kentucky River within sight of Boonesborough. They were followed by 
Boone and a party of men from the fort, and were rescued on the follow¬ 
ing day. One of the men in this party was Samuel Henderson, who was 
married on August 7, 1776, at Boonesborough, to Elizabeth Callaway, one 
of the girls who was captured. Their first child, Fanny, born May 29, 
1777, was the first white child of parents married in Kentucky. Another 
member of the pursuing party was Flanders Callaway, who afterwards 
married Jemima Boone.

Boone’s life, for several years after this, was occupied in protecting 
the settlers from the Indians. Boonesborough was attacked on April 
15, 1777, and again on the following fourth of July. So disastrous were 
the Indian hostilities that year that only three of the settlements proved 
permanent—Boonesborough with twenty-two men; Colonel Harrod’s fort, 
or Harrodsburgh, with sixty-five, and Logan’s fort with fifteen. 

On January first, 1778, Boone with a party of thirty men, went to 
Blue Licks, on Licking River, to make salt for the different garrisons; 
on the 7th day of February, Boone while hunting to procure meat for the 
party, was captured by Indians; on the following day they took him to 
the Licks where twenty-seven of the party of salt makers who remained 
there, surrendered to the Indians. The entire party, as prisoners, were 
taken by the Indians to Old Chillicothe, the principal Indian town on 
the Little Miami where they arrived on the 18th day of February. On 
the 10th of March, Boone and ten of his men were taken by the In¬ 
dians to Detroit, where they “were treated by Governor Hamilton, the 
British Commander at that post, with great humanity.” The men of 
Boone’s party were left in captivity with the British at Detroit, but 
Boone was brought back to Old Chillicothe on April 25, 1778. Here he 
was adopted into the family of the Indian chief. Black Fish, and on June 
first, was taken by the Indians to the salt springs on the Scioto river and 
kept there ten days making salt. On their return to Chillicothe, Boone, 
learning that the Indians were preparing to march against Boonesborough, 
escaped and arrived at Boonesborough on June 20, 1778, after an absence 
of four months, and found that his wife, having given him up for dead, 
had returned with her family, including her son-in-law, William Hays, 
to her childhood home upon the Yadkin. His brother Squire, and his 
daughter Jemima, who had married Flanders Callaway, a son of James 
Callaway, a brother of Colonel Richard Callaway (K. 24C.119) were the 
only kinsfolk to greet him. Boone at once proceeded to put the fort in 
a condition to repel the expected attack. 

On August eighth, four hundred Indians under command of Boone’s 
Indian foster-father. Black Fish, appeared before the fort and besieged 

it until the 20th day of August, at which time they withdrew. Of the 

garrison but two were killed and four wounded. Soon after this Boone 
was promoted from Captain to Major. 

In the Fall of 1778, he went to his family in North Carolina, but 
returned with them to Boonesborough in the summer of 1779. In De¬ 
cember, 1779, Boone’s cousin, William Scholl, with his family, from Shen¬ 
andoah County, Virginia, joined Boone at Boonesborough (k. 23C. 104 
& 106). In the year 1779, the legislature of Virginia appointed a com¬ 
mission to settle Kentucky land claims, at which time Major Boone was 

commissioned by certain settlers to purchase land warrants from the State 
Government of Virginia, and for this purpose set out for Richmond in 
the Spring of 1780. With his own money and the additional funds en- 





573

trusted to him for that purpose, he carried twenty thousand dollars in 

depreciated paper money, but was robbed of the entire sum while on his 
way. 

The writer has the original receipt given by Boone to his son-in-law 
William Hays, for money deposited by him with Boone at this time, 
which reads as follows: 

‘‘February 10th, 1780. Received of Wm. Hays Fore Hundred & Eight 

Pounds for to bring a Warant for a settlement of Premtion a Laying on the 

North Forke of Licking. 

(Signed) Daniel Boone.'’ 

Boone was criticized by some of his neighbors who had entrusted 
their money to him, but some of them remained loyal to him, among 
whom was Colonel Thomas Hart, who, in a letter to his brother. Captain 
Nathaniel Hart, under date of August 3, 1780, absolved Boone from all 
blame and states: “I have known Boone in times of old, when poverty 
and distress held him fast by the hand; and in these wretched circum¬ 
stances, I have ever found him of a noble and generous soul, despising 
everything mean; and therefore I will freely grant him a discharge for 
whatever sums of mine he might have been possessed of at that time." 
(b. page 29) 

In the Western District of Virginia, prior to 1776, there were only 
seven original counties, one of said number being Fincastle County, out 
of which Kentucky County was taken on December 31, 1776. On 
November 1, 1780, the County of Kentucky was divided into three coun¬ 
ties, viz: Jefferson, Lincoln and Fayette—Daniel Boone being named as 
Lieutenant-Colonel of Fayette County. He was also a Deputy Surveyor 
of said County, serving under Colonel Thomas Marshall, surveyor. 

In 1779, soon after Boone's return to Boonesborough, he moved his 
family to a new location on the banks of Boone's Creek across the Ken¬ 
tucky River at a point several miles Northwest of Boonesborough. Here 
he built a log house, which was called Boone's Station, within the then 
limits of Fayette County; said station being located near the present 
site of the town of Athens in the present Fayette County. Soon after 
he reached here he was joined by Edward and Samuel Boone, and his 
son-in-law, William Hays, with their families. 

In the Fall of the year 1775, ^William Bryan, brother-in-law of 
Daniel Boone, with three of his brothers and several neighbors, left the 
settlement at the forks of the Yadkin River in North Carolina, to explore 
Kentucky with the intention of selecting lands on which to settle. They 
spent a short time at Boonesborough and then returned to North Caro¬ 
lina to make preparations to return to Kentucky to plant corn before 
moving their families, (k.22 C.22.) 

In March, 1776, the Bryans returned to Kentucky, crossing the 
Kentucky River at Boonesborough and settled Bryan's Station, “sixteen 







574 


^f)t Poone amilp 


miles North of Boonesborough’’ (k.22, C.22) on the North fork of the 
Elkhorn River, five miles Northeast of the present site of Lexington 
in Fayette County, where they cleared sixty acres and planted corn. 
Leaving two men to care for the corn, they returned to North Carolina 
to bring their families to Kentucky in the fall following, but the Cherokee 
Indians at that time had commenced war against the frontier of Virginia 
and North and South Carolina, which prevented the Bryans’ return to 
Kentucky, until April 1779, when they were again at the Bryan camp; 
they ‘‘erected a small fort and put in a crop of corn, then returned to 
North Carolina to move the family to Bryan’s Station,” (k.22 C.22) 
leaving several men, including Samuel Bryan and William Grant, who 
had married a sister of Daniel Boone, with their respective families, to 
protect the fort. In the summer of 1779, William Bryan, with his brothers, 
Joseph, Morgan and James, and their families, and a number of their 
neighbors, all emigrated to Kentucky and settled at Bryan’s Station, where 
they built a number of cabins and enlarged the fort. Collins History 
of Kentucky, Vol. 2, page 186, says: 

“Bryan’s Station, about five miles Northeast of Lexington, was settled 
by the Bryans in 1779, In 1781, Bryan’s Station was much harassed by 
small parties of Indians.” 

“This was a frontier post, and greatly exposed to the hostilities of the 
savages. It had been settled in 1779 by four brothers from North Carolina, 
one of whom, William, had married a sister of Colonel Daniel Boone.” 

From a History of Kentucky, by Perrin, Battle and Kniffin, publish¬ 
ed 1888, we find on Page 163, that 

“Bryan’s Station established on the South bank of the North fork of 
the Elkhorn, about five miles Northeast of Lexington. This colony con¬ 
sisted principally of immigrants from North Carolina, of whom the Bryans 
were the most conspicuous. There were four brothers of this family: Morgan, 
James, William and Joseph, all men in easy circumstances with large families 
of children approaching maturity. William, though not the eldest, was the 
natural leader of the party. His wife was the sister of Boone, as was also the 
wife of William Grant, another member of this settlement. The station 
early fell a victim to the hostility of the savages.” 

In December, 1779, and January, 1780, the Commissioners appointed 
by Virginia to settle land claims, held their court at Bryan’s Station, at 
which time it was found that the station land was within the limits of 
a survey made in July, 1774, for William Preston, then surveyor of Fin- 
castle County, Virginia. This finding resulted in the Bryans losing title 
to the land occupied by them. 

In the Spring of 1780, the Indians killed several men, including 
Colonel Richard Callaway and William Bryan, a son of the William Bryan 
one of the founders of Bryan Station. 

In the month of May, 1780, William Bryan, one of the four brothers 
who had founded Bryan Station, was killed by Indians while he was out 





©amel Poone 


575 


hunting with eleven other men from the Station in quest of meat for the 
use of their families. With the loss of their lands and the death of their 
leader, the Bryan’s left Kentucky in August, 1780, and returned to North 
Carolina, where they stayed until the trouble with the Indians had all 
been settled. 

So much has been written concerning “Bryan Station” and its 
founders that the writer deemed it of sufficient importance to insert in 
this sketch the foregoing facts pertaining thereto, in order to prove the 
correct name of the Station and its proper location. The principal 
testimony being that of Daniel Bryan, son of William Bryan, one of the 
four brothers who founded the Station. 

This Daniel Bryan was born in North Carolina on February 10, 
1758, and was twenty-one years of age, when he accompanied his father 
to Kentucky and Bryan’s Fort was first erected. His letter, written in 
1843, may be found in Draper Mss. 22 C 5, and should be sufficient 
evidence to convince all doubters as to the real name of Bryan’s Station 
and by whom, when and where it w^as founded. 

To return to the subject of our sketch, we find him with his brother, 
Edward Boone, in October, 1780, boiling salt at Grassy Lick in the north 
east part of the present Bourbon county. While they were returning 
hom^e Edward was killed by Indians, but Daniel escaped, returning to 
his station on Boone’s Creek where a party consisting of men from several 
stations in that vicinity, was at once formed for the purpose of pursuing 
the Indians and avenging Edward’s death. With this party was Daniel 
Boone, his son, Israel, and his nephew-in-law, Peter Scholl, who was the 
husband of Mary, daughter of Edward Boone. The pursuing party failed 
to overtake the Indians and returned to their several stations. 

In April, 1781, Daniel Boone was elected to the Legislature at 
Richmond, Virginia, as one of the first representatives of Fayette County. 

On the night of August 15, 1782, Bryan’s Station was besieged by 
several hundred Indians and British, the attack continuing for two days; 
the besiegers being repulsed by aid of men from other stations. On 
August 19, 1782, the Indians who had besieged the station were pursued 
and overtaken at the Blue Licks, by one hundred eighty-two Kentuckians 
under Colonels Todd, Trigg and Boone. The pursuing party fell into an 
ambush, were overpowered and forced to flee leaving seventy-seven killed 
and twelve wounded. Boone’s son, Israel, was among the dead, he being 
at that time twenty-three years, six months and twenty-four days old. 
As soon as the knowledge of the defeat at the Blue Licks reached the 
fort at Louisville, General George Rogers Clark made arrangements for a 
formidable expedition into the Indian country, which resulted in the 
destruction of the principal Indian towns on the Miami and Scioto rivers. 
This expedition was the last in which Colonel Boone was engaged for 
the defense of the settlements of Kentucky, (f. page 138.)

Late in 1782 Daniel Boone was deputy surveyor of Fayette county 
and was also Sheriff and County Lieutenant of Fayette, he being in 
frequent demand as a pilot and surveyor by persons seeking lands on 
which to settle. On August 19, 1783, he was appointed deputy surveyor* 
of Lincoln county. In the Fall of 1784 he and his sons-in-law, William 
Hays and Joseph Scholl, with their families settled on Marble Creek, 
North of the Kentucky river, about five miles from Boone’s Station, then 
in Fayette County, (k. 23 C 104.) 

About the year 1786 he left the neighborhood of the Kentucky river 
and lived for some time at Limestone, now Maysville, at the mouth of 
Limestone Creek, a tributary of the Ohio River, then in Bourbon county, 
now in Mason county, (a. Vol. 2 p. 556.) He was there a tavern keeper 
and merchant, and was one of the first trustees of the town. While 
living at Limestone, in 1786, he was also made one of the first trustees 
of Washington, the oldest town in the then Bourbon county. In 1788 
he moved from Limestone to the Kanawha Valley near Point Pleasant, 
situated at the junction of the Great Kanawha and Ohio Rivers in what 
was then the Northwestern part of the State of Virginia, but now within 
the limits of Mason county. West Virginia. In the same year he, with 
his wife and their son Nathan went b}^ horseback, to their old Pennsyl¬ 
vania home in Berks county, on a visit to kinsfolk and friends. He 

returned to Point Pleasant, and, on October 6, 1789, upon the organiza¬ 
tion of the first court held after the formation of Kanawha County and 

appointment of officers of the first military organization, he was ap¬ 

pointed Lieutenant Colonel, and in 1791 was elected as one of two re¬ 
presentatives in the legislature from Kanawha county. 

We find no record of Boone’s life at Point Pleasant during the years 
immediately succeeding this except a number of surveys of land in said 
county, made by him in 1791, 1795 and 1798; the last survey recorded 
in said county in which Boone took part was made September 8, 1798. 
(Daniel Boone, by Dr. John P. Hale.) 

The precise date of Boone’s leaving Kanawha County for Upper 
Louisiana, now Missouri, is not known to the writer, but we find in Col¬ 
lins’ History of Kentucky, Vol. 2, page 562: 

^‘Daniel Boone, the great pioneer, was a resident of Maysville in Septem¬ 
ber, 1788. How late he remained at Maysville is not known. Deposit¬ 
ions show that he was in Northern Kentucky in 1795; and Rev. Thos. S. 
Hinde saw him in October, 1797, on pack horses, take up his journey for 
Missouri, then Upper Louisiana.” 

In Peck’s ‘‘Life of Daniel Boone” we find a record of the “Pro¬ 
ceedings of the Legislature of Kentucky and of Congress, confirming 
Daniel Boone’s Title to Lands in Missouri,” the report from the committee 
on Public Lands, in the House of Representatives in Congress, on the 
24th day of December, 1813, referring to the petition of Daniel Boone, 
states: 




IBaniel ^oone 


577 


That the petitioner was invited by Zenon Trudeau, Lieutenant Gover- 
of Upper Louisiana under the Spanish Government, to remove from 
Kentucky, who, as an inducement to his removal, promised the petitioner 
a grant of land in that country. The petitioner did remove to Louisiana 
before ^e year 1798; and on the 24th of January, 1798, he received from 
Zenon Trudeau a concession of one thousand arpents of land situated in the 

District of Femme Osage; had the same surveyed on the 9th of January, 
1800. 


Upon arriving in Upper Louisiana Boone and his wife resided for a 
time with his son Daniel Morgan Boone, who had built a house in DarsFs 
Bottom, adjoining the tract granted to his father by the Spanish Gov¬ 
ernment. (b. pg. 47) 

Bryan and Rose, in their “Pioneer Families of Missouri” page 44, 
state: 

“Colonel Boone and his family were the first Americans that settled within 
the present limits of the State of Missouri. The French had established 
trading posts at several points, and had formed a village of four or five 
hundred inhabitants at St. Louis, but there were no regular settlements 
beyond these.” 


On June 11, 1800, Boone was appointed syndic, or magistrate, for 
the Femme Osage district, a position which he held until the cession of 
Louisiana to the United States in the year 1804. He made a trip to 
Kentucky in the year 1801, to visit his son Jesse, in Kanawha County, 
Virginia, where Boone once lived. He was accompanied on this trip 
from Clark County, Kentucky, by his son-in-law Joseph Scholl, (k. 23 
C 9; 23 C 11; 23 C 17 and 23 C 18.) During the same year (1801) he hunted 
beaver on the “Niango” or Niangua, river in Missouri (k), and there is a well 
established tradition in Camden County, in said State, the county in which 
the famous Hahatonka spring is located and through which the Niangua River 
flows, that Boone’s camp and headquarters were at this spring. We can well 
imagine the delight of Boone, then 67 years of age, in finding such a beautiful 
spot whereon to erect his camp and from which to pursue his favorite calling, 
that of trapping. Hahatonka spring is almost entirely surrounded by high 
bluffs that are honey combed with caves and this neighborhood was at one 
time a favorite camping place of the Indians, as evidenced by the large number 
of arrow heads and Indian mounds yet to be found there. This spring and 
thousands of acres surrounding it, now belong to the estate of Robert M. Snyder, 
deceased. It has attracted a great deal of attention from the public for many 
years, and, with its surroundings, should be preserved in its natural state for 
the benefit and inspiration of the generations yet unborn. 

At the time of Boone’s removal to Upper Louisiana game was abun¬ 
dant and he spent a great deal of time hunting, extending his trips into 


578

the present limits of Callaway County, in Missouri, where there is yet 
standing a white oak tree, about one mile south of Williamsburg, in said 
County, on which the writer in 1917, found the initials ‘‘D. B/’ This tree 
has been known and referred to in that neighborhood for the past century 
as the ‘‘Daniel Boone treed' Boone's grandson, Joseph Scholl, Jr., and 
grand-father of the writer, owned at one time a farm of five hundred 
acres in this neighborhood. The last hunt made by Boone, of which we 
have any record, was made “up the Missouri" in June 1816, at which 
time he was living with his son Nathan Boone, in St. Charles County, 
(k. 22 S 230.) 

Rebecca, the wife of Daniel Boone, died in St. Charles County, Mis¬ 
souri, on March 18, 1813, aged seventy-four years, one month and eleven 
days. After her death Boone remained for a while with his son Nathan, 
on Femme Osage Creek, where they had been living for several years; 
after which he made his home with his daughter Jemima, who, with her 
husband, Flanders Callaway, lived on a farm on Teuque Creek, in Warren 
County, Missouri, near the place where Mrs. Boone was buried. 

In the latter part of the summer of 1820, Boone had a severe attack 
of fever, at the home of Flanders Callaway, but he recovered sufficiently 
to make a visit to the home of his son Nathan Boone, on Femme Osage 
Creek. “One day a nice dish of sweet potatoes—a vegetable of which 
he was very fond—was prepared for him. He ate heartily and soon after 
had an attack from which he never recovered. He gradually sank and, 
after three days' illness, died on the 26th of September, 1820," (d) aged 
eighty-five years, eleven months and four days, and was buried near the 
body of his wife, in a cemetery established in 1803 by David Bryan, upon 
the bank of a small stream called Teuque Creek about one and one-half 
miles southeast of the present site of the town of Marthasville, in Warren 
County, Missouri, it being at that time the only Protestant cemetery 
North of the Missouri River. 

Daniel Boone never made any profession of religion or united with 
any church. In a letter to his sister-in-law, Sarah Boone, wife of his 
brother Samuel, written October 19, 1816, he says: 

“All the Relegan I have to love and fear God beleve in Jeses Christ. 
Don all the good to my Nighbour and my self that I Can and Do as Little 
harm as I Can help and trust on God's marcy for the rest and I Beleve God 
neve made a man of my prisepel to be Lost." (^) 

The house in which Boone died is yet standing and is said to be the 
first stone house built in Missouri, outside of the City of St, Louis. 

The body of Boone was conveyed the day following his death, to the 
home of his daughter Mrs. Flanders Callaway where the funeral sermon 
was preached by the Rev. James Craig, a son-in-law of Nathan Boone. 
At the time of his death the Constitutional Convention of Missouri was 
in session at St. Louis, and upon receipt of notice of his death, a resolu- 




Bantel ^oone 


579 


tion was offered by the Hon. Benjamin Emmons, a member from St. 
Charles, that the members wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty 
days, in respect to the memory of the deceased, and adjourn for one day. 
The resolution was unanimously adopted. 

The picture of Daniel Boone which is shown with this sketch was 
copied from “Pioneer Families of Missouri,by Bryan and Rose, publish¬ 
ed in 1876. In this book the authors state: 

“The portrait which we give as a frontispiece, is from a photograph of 
the painting made by Mr. Chester Harding, the distinguished artist of 
Boston, who came to Missouri in 1820, at the request of Revs. James E. 
Welch and John M. Peck, expressly to paint the picture. Boone, at that 
time, was at the home of his son-in-law, Mr. Flanders Callaway, near the 
village of Marthasville, in Warren County. He was at first very much 
opposed to haying his portrait painted, being governed by feelings of modesty 
and a strong dislike to anything approaching display or public attention; but 
he was finally prevailed upon by friends and relatives to sit for his picture. 
He was quite feeble at the time and was supported in his chair by Rev. Mr. 
Welch. He wore his buckskin hunting shirt, trimmed with otter’s fur, and 
the knife that is seen in his belt is the same that he carried with him 
from North Carolina on his first expedition to Kentucky. 

“The picture is pronounced by persons who knew Boone intimately, to 
be a perfect likeness, and the following certificate from Rev. James E. Welch, 
who is still living, at Warrensburg, Mo., may be of interest in this connection: 

“ T, James E. Welch, of Warrensburg, Johnson Co., Mo., hereby cer¬ 
tify that I believe this portrait to be a correct copy of Harding’s picture of 
Col. Daniel Boone, which was painted in the summer of 1820. I stood by 
and held the Colonel’s head while the artist was painting it, and my impress¬ 
ions at the time were, that it was an excellent likeness of the old pioneer, 
which I believe was the only picture taken of Col. Boone. 

“ ‘Given under my hand May 16, 1876. 

“ ‘James E. Welch.’ ” 

The signature of Daniel Boone which is shown under his picture 
herewith is a reproduction of the original signed to a letter of his dated 
May 6, 1806, which is in the possession of the writer. 

In the year 1900 there was founded, in the New York University, the 
Hall of Fame, wherein it was planned to honor one hundred and fifty 
great Americans, thirty foreign born Americans and sixty American women. 
The persons whose duty it was to select the names of the persons to be 
thus honored being empowered to vote every five years, completing the 
list in the year 2000. At a meeting held in the year 1915, of the electors 
whose ballot admits to the Hall of Fame, the names of seven great 
Americans were added to the list of those previously admitted, and among 
the seven was that of “DANIEL BOONE, PIONEER,” the subject of 
this sketch. 

On July 9, 1921, Ray Baker, director of the mint, announced the 
completion, at the Philadelphia mint, of the quarter of a million dollars 
in special fifty cent pieces, authorized by congress in commemoration of 
the one hundredth anniversary of Missouri statehood.

and at the bottom, ‘Sedalia,’ where the Missouri celebration is to be

state to be admitted into the Union. 

We have followed Daniel Boone throughout the course of his life, 
down to the most recent honor paid his memory, and will here let him 
rest; confident are we in the belief that while the names of other men who 
were endowed with more learning or who rose higher in the councils of 
his day will have been forgotten, the fame of Daniel Boone will continue 
and will be a source of pride to each of his descendants.

Boone Genealogy as written by James Boone 

March 21st, 1788. 


Our GENEALOGY, or PEDIGREE; traced as far back as had come 
to the knowledge of John Boone (the son of George & Mary Boone): 
wrote by James Boone (Grandson of the said George & Mary Boone). 

GEORGE BOONE, I. (that is the first that we have heard of) was 
born in England. 

GEORGE BOONE, II. (Son of George Boone, the First) was born in 
or near the City of Exeter in Devonshire; being a Blacksmith; his Wife’s 
Maiden Name was Sarah Uppey. He died aged 60; and she died aged 
80 years, and never had an aching Bone, or decayed Tooth .— 

GEORGE BOONE, III. (son of George & Sarah Boone) was born at 
Stoak (a Village near the City of Exeter) in A. D. 1666, being a Weaver; 
his Wife’s Maiden Name was Mary Maugridge, who was born in Brad- 
NiNCH (eight Miles from the City of Exeter) in the Year 1669, being a 
Daughter of John Maugridge & Mary his Wife whose maiden Name was 
Milton. They (the said George & Mary Boone) had nine Children that 
lived to be Men and Women; namely, George, Sarah, Squire, Mary, 
John, Joseph, Benjamin, James & Samuel, having each of them several 
Children, excepting John who was never married. The said George and 
Mary Boone with their Family, came from the Town of Bradninch in 
Devonshire, Old-England (which is a Town at 8 miles Distance from the 
City of Exeter, and 177 measured Miles Westward from London); they 
left Bradninch the 17 Aug. 1717, and went to Bristol where they took 
Shipping, arid arrived at Philadelphia in 1717 September 29, Old-Stile, 
or October 10th New-Stile; three of their Children, to wit, George, 
Sarah & Squire they sent in a few Years before. From Philadelphia they

®f)e ?ioonc Jfamilp 


went to Abington, and staid a few Months there; thence to North-Wales, 
and liv’d about 2 Years there; thence to Oley in the same County of 
Philadelphia, where Sarah (being married) had moved to some Time 
before. This last Place of their Residence (since the Divisions made in 
the Township of Oley & County of Philadelphia) is called the Township 
of Exeter in the County of Berks: It was called Exeter, because they came 
from a Place near the City of Exeter. And, 

He the said George Boone the Third, died on the Sixth Day of the 
Week, near 8 o’clock in the Morning, on the 27th of July 1744, aged 
78 Years; and Mary his Wife died on the 2d Day of the Week, on the 
2d of February 1740-1, aged 72 years; and were decently interred in 
Friends Burying-Ground, in the said Township of Exeter. When he died, 
he left 8 Children, 52 Grand-Children, and 10 Great-Grand-Children, 
Living; in all 70, being as many Persons as the House of Jacob which 
came into Egypt. 

GEORGE BOONE, IV. (the eldest Son of George & Mary Boone) 
was born in the Town of Bradninch aforesaid, on the 13th of July 1690, 
about I H. past 5 in the Afternoon; and died in Exeter Township afore¬ 
said, on the 20 November 1753; in the 64th Year of his Age. He taught 
School for several Years near Philadelphia; was a good Mathematician, 
and taught the Several Branches of English Learning; and was a Magis¬ 
trate for several Years. His wife’s maiden Name was Deborah Howell. 
-She died in 1759 January 26.- 

GEORGE BOONE V. (the eldest Son of George & Deborah Boone) 
was never married, and died in Exeter Township aforesaid, aged about 
24 Years.- 

SARAH BOONE (Daughter of George & Mary Boone) was born on 
the Fifth Day of the Week, about JH. past 11 in the Forenoon, on the 
18th of February 1691-2. 

SQUIRE BOONE (son of George & Mary Boone) was born on the 
Fourth Day of the Week, between 11 & 12 in the Forenoon, on the 25 
November, 1696.- 

MARY BOONE (Daughter of George & Mary Boone) was born. 
Sept. 23, A. D. 1699: She was the Wife of John Webb, and departed this 
Life the 16th of January 1774, in the 75th Year of her Age; her Husband 
died in the same Year, October 18th, in the 80th Year of his Age.- 

JOSEPH BOONE (Son of George & Mary Boone) was born between 
4 & 5 in the Afternoon, on the 5th of April 1704; and he departed this

Catherine Boone died on the 31st of January 1778, and was interred at 
Exeter the next Day exactly 2 Years after the Burial of her Husband.- 

BENJAMIN BOONE (Son of George & Mary Boone) was born the 
16th of July, 1706, and he died on the 14th of October 1762, in the 
57th Year of his Age. Susanna Boone (his Widow) died on the 5 Nov. 
1784, in the 76th Year of her Age. 

SAMUEL BOONE (the youngest Son of George & Mary Boone) 
departed this Life on the 6th of August 1745, and was buried at Exeter 
the next Day; aged about 34 Years.- 

JAMES BOONE, Senr, (the Sixth Son of George & Mary Boone) 
was born in the Town of Bradninch, in Devonshire, in Old-England, 
about J Hour past 2 in the Morning, on the 7th of July (Old-Stile), or 
the 18th of July (New-Stile), Anno Domini 1709. And in 1735 May 15, 
(0. S.) he married Mary Foulke by whom he had fourteen Children, and 
Nine of them lived to be Men & Women, namely, Anne, Mary, Martha, 
James, John, Judah, Joshua, Rachel, & Moses. The Said James Boone, 
Senior, & Mary his Wife lived together 20 Years 8 Months & 25 Days; 
and She departed this life on the 6th Day of the Week, at 20 Minutes 
past one o'clock in the Afternoon, on the 20th Day of February 1756, 
aged 41 years & 11 Weeks, and was decently interred in Friends Burying- 
Ground at Exeter on the First Day of the next Week. And in 1757 
October 20, he married Anne Griffith, being just 20 Months after the 
Decease of his former Wife.—And here, for the Satisfaction of the Curious, 
I shall insert a few Chronological Remarks, viz.— 

The said Mary Boone deceased in 1756 Feb. 20, at 20 Minutes past 
one in the Afternoon, which wanted but two Minutes & Sixteen Seconds 
of 20 o'clock according to the Italian Manner of Reckoning (for the 
Italians, Jews, & some others, always begin their Day at Sun-Set); which 
was the 20th Day of the Zenith Month adar, when the Moon was 20 

Days old, and 4 Weeks before the Vernal Equinox.-The Said James 

Boone, Senior, married Anne Griffith in 1757 October 20, at 20 Minutes 
past one in the Afternoon; that is, he was married to his Second (or 
last) Wife exactly 20 Months after the Decease of his first, and 4 Weeks 
after the Autumnal Equinox.- 

JAMES BOONE, Senior, departed this Life on the 1st Day of Sept¬ 
ember, A. D. 1785, on the Fifth Day of the Week, at ten Minutes after 
nine o'clock at Night, in the 77th Year of his Age; and was decently 
interred in Friends Burying-Ground at Exeter on the Seventh Day of 
the Same Week. He (with his Parents, etc.) left Great-Britain in the 

9th Year of his Age, and lived Almost 68 Years in Pennsylvania.- 

N. B. When he was born, it was between 9 & 10 at Night here in Penn- 









586 


®f)c JSoone Jfamilp 


sylvania (allowing for the Difference of Longitude); and he died between 
9 & 10 at Night.- 

JOHN BOONE, Senior (the third Son of George & Mary Boone) 
was born in the Town of Bradninch, in Devonshire, in Old-England, on 
the Seventh Day of the Week, about 10 or 11 o’clock in the Forenoon, on 
the 3 January 1701-2, Old-Stile, or A. D. 1702 January 14th, New 
Stile. And he departed this Life on the 10th Day of October 1785, on 
the Second Day of the Week, Sixteen Minutes after Midnight, in the 
84th Year of his Age (being the oldest of our Name & Family, that we 
have heard of); and was decently interred in Friends Burial Ground at 
Exeter the next Day. He (with his Parents, etc.) left Great-Britain in 
the 16th Year of his Age, and lived exactly 68 years here (in North- 
America) from the Day he landed at Philadelphia. He lived only 5 
Weeks and 4 Days after the Decease of his Brother James.—N.B. All of 
our Relations of the Name of Boone, who were living after 1785 October 
10, are American born, as far as we know. 

Now, I shall conclude this Paper, after I have set down the Time 
& Place of my own Nativity, viz.- 

I James Boone (the eldest Son of James Boone, Senior, & Mary 
his Wife) wa^ born in the Township of Exeter afojresaid, on the Fifth 
Day of the Wetek, about five o’clock in the Morning, on the 26th Day 
of January 1743-4, Old-Stile, or A. D. 1744 February 6, New-Stile. The 
Geographical Situation of the Place of my Birth, is nearly as follows; 


viz.— 

Deg. Min. 

Latitude. 40: 22 North 

Longitude from London. 75: 43| West 


So that, the Meridian passing through said Place, is 5 Hours 2 
Minutes & 54 Seconds West from the Meridian of London; or nearly so, 
if otherwise. 

(It will he noted that the 'persons named above are not recorded in the 
order of their birth. — H. A. S.) 

A reproduction of the above manuscript may be found following page 18. 

(Note:-While the following is contained in the same manuscript group 
in the Draper Collection, it appears to he a different and separate composi¬ 
tion by James Boone. The hand writing is the same as that in the fore¬ 
going record, but it is not so carefully prepared, nor does it seem to have 
been written on such good paper, as it is much more mutilated than the 
first document. It deals principally with the family of James Boone Sr.)

Note On Boone Genealogy 
(Draper Mss. Appendix N-iii.) 

‘Tt is proper that some notice of the authenticity of this curious 
document, and some account of the writer, should precede the narrative 
itself. Jonathan, eldest son of Squire Boone, the brother of Col. Daniel 
Boone, was sent, in or about the year 1787, to Berks county, Pennsyl¬ 
vania, to attend school; and there residing among his relatives, received 
the instructions of his father’s cousin, James Boone; and returning home 
to Kentucky the next year, brought with him this Genealogical Narra¬ 
tive, written by the said James Boone, as is endorsed on the instrument, 
March 21st, 1788. (1) It is a beautiful specimen of chirography, as hun¬ 
dreds can attest who have seen it: ‘T can truly say,” declares Mr. 
Charles Cist, the well-known statistician of Cincinnati, ‘T never examined 
a more remarkable manuscript document.” This genealogical account 
has been preserved in Jonathan Boone’s family, and from his grandson. 
Col. Wm. P. Boone, a prominent attorney at law of Louisville, Ky., the 
original has been obtained. This document is fully corroborated by 
another though briefer sketch, in precisely the same hand-writing, pre¬ 
served by the late aged Miss Susannah Boone, raised in Berks county. 
Pa., and obtained from her half brother, James W. Biddle, Esqr., editor 
of the Pittsburg Daily American. The dates are precisely the same, so 
far as they go, in both papers. The same general dates also appear in a 
similar record preserved by a nephew of said James Boone, Mr. John 
Boone, of Berks county. Pa. (2)

and also with Col. W. P. Boone, of Louisville, Ky.”

RECORDS OF THE SOCIETY OF FRIENDS 

IN PENNSYLVANIA 

The Boones were first associated with the Abington Meeting near 
Philadelphia, but later moved to Oley in Philadelphia County (now 
Exeter Township, Berks County), where they became members of the 
Gwynedd Meeting. As the community became more thickly settled and 
the congregation grew, it became necessary to divide Gwynedd Meet¬ 
ing, and on August 25, 1737 (Old Style), a new group was formed under 
the name of Oley Monthly Meeting, which name was later—May 27, 
1742 (Old Style)—changed to Exeter. 

This explains why early records of the Boone family are found in 
both Gwynedd and Exeter Meeting Records, although their place of 
residence remained the same. By far the greater number of Boone re¬ 
cords are found in Exeter Meeting Records, and extend well into the 
nineteenth century. The following sketch of Exeter Friends’ Meeting 
House was published by the Historical Society of Berks County, Penn¬ 
sylvania, in 1913:— 

‘‘One of the first Quaker meeting-houses in Pennsylvania, outside of 
Philadelphia, was erected in 1726, in that part of Oley Township which is 
now Exeter Township. It was a log building. In 1737 a larger meeting-house 
was erected, also built of logs. The second meeting-house was demolished 
about one hundred years ago, when the present stone building was erected. 
The first meeting-house stood near the corner of the field across the road west 
of the present meeting-house. 

“On December 24th, 1736, George Boone and wife Deborah deeded to the 
Friends one acre of ground for a meeting-house and burying place. The 
first meeting-house, which stood across the way, was on a corner of this 
same one-acre piece, the road now separating the plots being cut through 
in later years. The burial-ground is south of the meeting-house. 

“The line separating Exeter from the older township of Amity runs 
through the Friends’ burying-ground. Exeter Township was formed in 
1741; the survey of the lines on the draft presented with the petition for 
the new township was made by George Boone, Esq. 

“The membership of the once flourishing Exeter Meeting has for many 
years been diminishing in numbers, there being at this time but three members, 
all of them of the Lee family. 

“By bequest a fund has been provided which suffices to keep the property 
in order. No meetings have been held in this house for about ten years.” 

¥ 

The original old records of the Friends have been carefully preserved, 
and are now deposited in the archives of the Society of Friends. Those 
in which we are most interested are now in the Department of Records 
of the Friends’ Library, 142 N. 16th Street, Philadelphia. On account 
of their extreme age and historic value, these old records are no longer

accessible to the public. Several years ago, however, careful abstracts 
of these records were made, and are now to be found in the library of the 
Historical Society of Pennsylvania, 1300 Locust Street, Philadelphia. 
From these abstracts the following Boone records were copied in 1917. 

{See explanation of Old and New Time, on page 14 of this book.)

A/T 4 .*^^ niuch to be regretted that the Minutes of Abington Monthly 
Meeting as now preserved, are but an abstract of what the originals must 
have been, of which some idea may be had by comparing this volume with 
those which follow it. While there is no evidence of any loss of records by 
accident, yet when George Boone transcribed the minutes in 1718, it was 
thought unnecessary to preserve many details which would now be of great 
interest. The transcriber ventured, moreover, to preface the work with 
some historical remarks which could scarcely have been found in the minutes, 
and of which the strict accuracy may be questioned.

RADNOR MONTHLY MEETING 
Addendum. 

“Edward Roberts, in a visit to the land of his nativity (Merionith- 
shire in the Principality of Wales) took some pains to get the account 
of the Births of several persons born there and afterwa^'ds removed with 
their parents into Pennsylvania and most of all were settled within the 
verge of this Monthly Meeting. After my father David George was 
appointed by the Monthly Meeting to record the Births of the children 
thereto belonging in the year 1750, he was furnished by Hugh Roberts, 
son of Edward Roberts, with the account so obtained as aforesaid. The 
Monthly Meeting in 1758 appointed me to Record Births in the place 
of my Father who declined. On mature consideration of the contents of 
the matter I hope no inconvenience can arise by entering the time of the 


^ppenbix

ancient British Language, (I) shall just give the names of the child and 
Father with the Time of Birth, reserving the liberty of inserting the Mo¬ 
ther’s name where I am sure, and while the Record is in my custody, 
shall endeavor to preserve that paper. Jesse George.”

Thomas Boone (Colonial Governor of New Jersey and South Carolina) 
Thomas Boone was a native of England, who first came to America 
in 1752 to take possession of an estate which devolved upon him at 
the death of Mrs. Boone, wife of his uncle Joseph Boone. The 
estate consisted of 6815 acres of land near Charleston, S. C., and 
was left to him and his brother Charles Boone about the year 1735 
by Joseph Boone in reversion after the death of his wife. She died 
about 1751. Thomas Boone returned to England for a period, but 
in 1758 came again to America, and the following year was appointed 
Governor of New Jersey. (Evidence in the memorial of Tholmas 
Boone to English Parliament, March, 1785, in clajm for losses he 
suffered during the American Revolution. From “American Loyal¬ 
ists,” a manuscript transcription of English papers. Manuscript 
Department, New York Public Library.) 

In April, 1761, less than six months after he became Governor 
of New Jersey, Thomas Boone was appointed Governor of South 
Carolina, and in October of the same year he removed to South Caro¬ 
lina to assume the new governorship. He held this office a little 
more than two yea^s, when, having been removed, he repaired to

^art l^l)ree 

pioneer life 


In the research made while preparing this Boone Genealogy, many 
interesting items were found which deal with the life and times of the early 
settlers of North Carolina and Kentucky. As they touch on the lives of 
many of the Boone Pioneers, it was thought well to give some of them in 
this section. 


TRAVEL 

The luxurious modes of travel of the present day make it rather 
difl&cult to imagine the almost insuperable hardships of a journey through 
the wilderness in the latter half of the eighteenth century. Going to 
new homes in a country still more wild and unbroken than that which 
they were leaving, families found it necessary to take with them all 
such articles of clothing, household furnishings and implements which 
they might need for several months or possibly years. Whatever else 
they needed they must depend upon wresting from the soil of the new 
homestead by their own hard labor.' As a rule there were no wagon roads, 
which necessitated packing all the goods upon horses. Who of us of the 
present generation could “pack up’’ wisely and well for such a journey? 
Fortunately they had not accustomed themselves to a multiplicity of 
household goods and personal belongings. Their journeys were lightened 
by simplicity of requirements, glad hearts, and perfect, abounding health. 

The following excerpt is from an address given by Chief Justice 
Robertson at Camp Madison, Franklin County, Kentucky, more than 
fifty years ago:— 

“Through privations incredible and perils thick, thousands of men, 
women and children came in successive caravans, forming continuous 
streams of human beings, horses, cattle, and other domestic animals, all 
moving onward along a lonely and houseless path to a wild and cheerless 
land. Cast your eyes back on that long procession of missionaries in the 
cause of civilization; behold the men on foot with their trusty guns on their 
shoulders, driving stock and leading pack-horses; and the women, some 
walking with pails on their heads, others riding with children on their laps, 












626 


Poonc Jf amilp 


and other children swung in baskets on horses fastened to the tails of others 
going before. See them encamped at night, expecting to be massacred by 
Indians; behold them in the month of December, in that ever memorable 
season of cold called the “hard winter’^ (1779), travelling two or three miles 
a day, frequently being frozen or killed by the falling of horses on the icy 
and almost impassable trace, and subsisting on stinted allowances of stale 
bread and meat. But now lastly look at them at the destined fort, perhaps 
on the eve of merry Christmas, when met by the hearty welcome of friends 
who had come before, and cheered by fresh buffalo meat and parched corn, 
they rejoice at their deliverance, and resolve to be contented with their lot. 

“This is no vision of the imagination; it is but an imperfect description 
of the pilgrimage of my own father and mother, and of many others who 
settled in Kentucky in December, 1779.” (a) 

In contrast with the alluring travel advertisements of today, we find 
this notice which was published in the “Kentucky Gazette,” Nov. 1st, 
1788. 

“Notice: A large company will meet at the Crab Orchard the 19th 
of November in order to start the next day through the Wilderness. As 
it is very dangerous on account of the Indians, it is hoped each person 
will go well armed.” (a) 


HOMES AND CUSTOMS 

A HOUSE-RAISING 

“Those more fortunate pioneers who settled in groups won the first 
heat in the battle with the wilderness through massed effort under wari¬ 
ness. They made their clearings in the forest, built their cabins and 
stockades, and planted their cornfields, while lookouts kept watch and 
rifles were stacked within easy reach. Every special task, such as a 
“raising,” as cabin building was called, was undertaken by the community 
chiefly because the Indian danger necessitated swift building and made 
group action imperative. But the staunch heart is ever the glad heart. 
Nothing in this frontier history impresses us more than the joy of the 
pioneer at his labors. His determined optimism turned danger’s dictation 
into an occasion for jollity. On the appointed day for the “raising,” 
the neighbors would come, riding or afoot, to the newcomer’s holding— 
the men with their rifles and axes, the women with their pots and kettles. 
Every child toddled along too, helping to carry the wooden dishes and 
spoons. These free givers of labor had something of the Oriental’s notion 
of the sacred ratification of friendship by a feast.” 

“The usual dimensions of a cabin were sixteen by twenty feet. The 
timber for the building, having been already cut, lay at handlogs of 
hickory, oak, young pine, walnut or persimmon. To make the foundations 


627 


^ppenbix 


the men seized four of the thickest logs, laid them in place, and notched 
and grooved and hammered them into as close a clinch as if thev had 
grown so. The wood must grip by its own substance alone to hold up 
the pioneer’s dwelling, for there was not an iron nail to be had in the 
whole of the Back Country. Logs laid upon the foundation logs and 
notched into each other at the four corners formed the walls; and, when 
these stood at seven feet, the builders laid parallel timbers and puncheons 
to make both flooring and ceiling. The ridgepole of the roof was support¬ 
ed by two crotched trees and the rooflng was made of logs and wooden 
slabs. The crevices of the walls were packed close with red clay and moss. 
Lastly, spaces for a door and windows were cut out. The door was made 
thick and heavy to withstand the Indian’s rush. And the windowpanes? 
They were of paper treated with hog’s fat or bear’s grease.” 

‘‘When the sun stood overhead, the women would give the welcome 
call of “Dinner!” Their morning had not been less busy than the men’s. 
They had baked corn cakes on hot stones, roasted bear or pork, or 
broiled venison steaks; and above all and first of all—they had con¬ 
cocted the great “stew pie” without which a raising could hardly take 
place. This was a disputatious mixture of deer, hog, and bear—animals 
which in life would surely have companioned each other as ill! It was 
made in sufficient quantity to last over for supper when the day’s labor 
was done. At supper the men took their ease on the ground, but with 
their rifles always in reach. If the cabin just raised by their efforts stood 
in the Yadkin, within sight of the great mountains the pioneers were 
one day to cross, perhaps a sudden bird note warning from the lookout, 
hidden in the brush, would bring the builders with a leap to their feet. 
It might be only a hunting band of friendly Catawbas that passed, or 
a lone Cherokee who knew that this was not his hour. If the latter, we 
can, in imagination, see him look once at the new house on his hunting 
pasture, slacken rein for a moment in front of the group of families, lift 
his hand in sign of peace, and silently go his way hillward. As he van¬ 
ishes into the shadows, the crimson sun, sinking into the unknown wil¬ 
derness beyond the mountains, pours its last glow on the roof of the cabin 
and on the group near its walls. With unfelt fingers, subtly, it puts the 
red touch of the West in the faces of the men—who have just declared, 
through the building of a cabin, that here is Journey’s End and their 
abiding place.” {a-2) Constance L. Skinner. 

A KENTUCKY STATION 

“The new station was quickly built. It was a rude and solitary 
habitation, but as strong as it was rude. It consisted of twelve or four¬ 
teen cabins of logs with the bark on, with roofs of roughest clapboards, 
and provided with chimneys of sticks and clay, but unlighted by one pane 
of glass, and all arranged as a hollow square by the aid of great pickets 


( 40 )

made of trunks of trees split in two and planted firmly in the ground. 
And the whole, green as the forest from which it had been hewed, was 
fashioned by the axe and put together by wooden pins without the help 
of a nail or hinge of iron. Stations and cabins were always placed near 
a spring, with which Kentucky is abundantly blessed, so that in time 
of Indian siege their water supply could not be cut off.’^ 

“The cabins contained furniture of the rudest kind, which would be 
made with the axe, the saw, and the auger. The bedstead was made 
by inserting forked tree limbs in the floor (dirt) and running poles through 
the prongs to bear the boards on which the bedding lay. Buffalo robes 
formed the mattress, while bear skins and deer skins supplied the cover¬ 
ing. The dining table was a puncheon hewed smooth with the broadaxe 
and supported by four sticks set into as many auger holes at the corners. 
Chairs were three-legged stools without backs. The cupboard consisted 
of boards laid on pegs driven into the corner walls. The table furniture 
was made up of wooden plates, bowls and trenches, usually turned from 
the bucke3^e. There were pewter plates and spoons, and delft cups and 
saucers, and two pronged iron forks, and case knives, and tin cups which 
had been brought from the old settlements, but they were not in general 
everyday use. They were only brought out on gala occasions, or when 
there was company. The fireplace occupied nearly one whole side of the 
cabin; the windows, where the light entered through greased paper, was 

a hole cut in the wall, and the door was simply a larger opening,-and 

the aperture covered with Buffalo skins. Near the door hung two prongs 
of buck’s horns fastened to the wall, and on them lay the long-barreled 
flint lock rifle, without which no cabin was completel^^ furnished.” (b) 

“The men wore buckskin breeches, hunting shirts and moccasins, 
with raccoon or fox skin caps: the women, such coarse linsey gowns as 
they could make by spinning on the little wheel and weaving on the 
hand loom, lint of the wild nettle and the wool of the buffalo. Buffalo, 
deer, bear and wild turkey furnished the principal meat, while Indian corn 
supplied the usual bread.” (b) 

These frontier forts were arranged in the form of a parrallelogram 
some two hundred or more feet long and about half as wide. The set¬ 
tlers’ cabins formed the outer walls of this quadrangle, being joined to¬ 
gether at their outer walls by a strong stockade of logs. At the four 
corners of the fort were two-story somewhat larger buildings used as 
bastions. These jutted out with port-holes in the angles, so that a 
flank fire might reach any savages who were close to the stockade. The 
huge log gates which guarded the entrance to the fort were flanked on 
either side by watch towers where sentries could scan the forests for 
lurking danger. Loop-holes were in the outer walls of cabins and stock¬ 
ade. In the center of the fort was usually a well, surrounded by a grass 
plot where cattle and horses could be gathered during times of danger. 
Theodore Roosevelt says regarding Fort Boonesborough:— 






ANDIRONS USED IN FORT BOONESBOROUGH 
Now in Possession * of Berea College, Berea, Kentucky. 

Mrs. Anna Ernberg, Director of The Fireside Industries, Berea College, writes as follows: 

‘ ‘ These andirons were brought over the Wilderness Road by a comrade of Daniel 
Boone, whose name was Andrew Townsend; they were given to me by a great-grandson, 
Andrew White, who is still living in this locality. He told me that the andirons were 
used for years at the Boonesborough Fort at the time Daniel Boone and his followers 
were building and occupying the same.'’ 

Berea College, an institution conducted for the benefit of the Kentucky mountain folk, 
stands at the gateway of the Cumberlands through which the Boones first entered Kentucky.

Every such fort or station served as the rallying place for the 
country round about, the strong-hold in which the people dwelt in time 
of danger; and later on, when all danger had long ceased, it often re¬ 
mained in changed form, growing into the chief town of the district. 
Each settler had his own farm besides, often a long way from the fort, 
and it was on this that he usually intended to make his permanent home. 
This system enabled the inhabitants to combine for defence, and yet to 
take up the large tracts of four to fourteen hundred acres to which they 
were by law entitled. It permitted them in time of peace to live well 
apart with plenty of room between, so that they did not crowd one 
another a fact much appreciated by men in whose hearts the spirit of 
extreme independence and self reliance was deeply ingrained.” (c) 

A FRONTIER WEDDING 

‘‘A wedding was always a time of festival. If there was a church 
anywhere near the bride rode thither on horseback behind her father, 
and after the service her pillion was shifted to the bridegroom’s steed. 
If, as generally happened, there was no church, the groom and his friends, 
all armed, rode to the house of the bride’s father, plenty of whiskey being 
drunk and the men racing recklessly along the narrow bridle paths, for 
there were few roads or wheeled vehicles in the backwoods. At the 
bride’s house the ceremony was performed, and then a huge dinner was 
eaten; after which the fiddling and dancing began, and were continued 
all the afternoon and most of the night as well.” (d) Roosevelt. 


WARFARE 

SIEGE OF BOONESBOROUGH 

In 1778 Daniel Boone escaped from the Indians after a long cap¬ 
tivity, and returned to Boonesborough with the knowledge that the fort 
was soon to be besieged. He had the fort put in repair, corn brought 
in, and dispatched a message to Holston in North Carolina for reinforce¬ 
ments. The following account of this siege was given by Daniel Bryan 
(No. Ill), a nephew of Daniel Boone:— 

“With 19 of the men, Boone now went on an expedition against old 
Wills town or Paint Creek, but when they had crossed the Ohio, the Indian 
sign became thicker and mc^re fearful, till they passed where it went towards 
the Ohio in a broad trace. As they passed they met a party of about thirty 
Indians coming along with loud laughs, and talking in a high key. They 
filed in ambushcade on either hand, fired upon them killing several, and then 
knowing they were discovered, made good their escape across the Ohio. 
Boone arrived at Boonesboro at night. ********* 

“In the morning the Indians were before Boonesborough. * * They formed 
and stuck down their colors about 300 yards from the fort. Blackfish 






Poone amilp 


630 


then stepped forward about half-way, and called for Capt. Boone. Boone 
answered him. Thejy met, accosting each other in friendship. Blackfish 
then asked Boone why he had left him. Boone said he wanted to see his 
wife and children. Blackfish said if he had asked him he would have let him 
go at a'liy time he chose, and given him provisions for the way. He then let 
him know his business, and produced his wampum. There was Boones- 
borough, and here was Detroit. The rod of red beads was the war-path they 
had come along; the row of white beads was the path they would take back 
if his men peaceably surrendered, and the row of black beads showed they 
would be put to death if they did not surrender. Boone asked two days to 
consider it; that while he had been a prisoner the garrison had been put into 
the hands of another man. In those two days they were getting in their 
stock and filling their vessels with water. During this time it was agreed 
no Indian should come within 30 steps of the fort (that they might not see 
inside) and the line was marked. One Indian, more daring than the others, 
ventured to pass over this line, and was threatened by the sentry with a shot. 
The Indian complained to Boone. Boone told him that was the agreement. 
At this time Boone let Blackfish know they had concluded not to surrender. 

‘‘Blackfish then asked him by what right the white people had taken 
possession of this country.^^ Boone answered they had purchased by Dick 
Henderson, of the Cherokee Indians. Blackfish turned to one of the Cher- 
okees who was standing by, and said to him, ‘Did your people sell this country 
to the whites.^’ He said they did. Blackfish said, ‘Well they ought to have 
it, if that was the case:’ and as his claim was no better than that of the 
white man, then they ought to live in peace. He then proposed a treaty, 
that they should live in peace as long as the trees grew and the waters ran. 
The interview was out on a log, within 15 yards of an embankment. Black¬ 
fish had his men, 16, arranged one on each side of a white man, and one 
behind each white man, on a log behind. Those behind had tomahawks 
concealed under their match-coats. Blackfish then told Boone that this, 
crossing the palms of the hands as in the shaking of the hands, was a short 
grip; which was a short friendship. But that this, putting their other hand 
around the arm below the shoulders, was a long peace, and that theirs was to 
continue, etc. He then endeavored, after getting them to rise and shake 
hands in this manner, to rush them under the bank. Just at this time those 
in the fort fired, and put them all in confusion, so that all of the men got 
away. Boone was aimed at by the Indian behind him, but the tomahawk 
went over his head, as he was in a bending position, overreaching him, and 
striking him only with the handle. * * Squire Boone was shot through the 
shoulder. * * * All the others escaped unhurt. 

“The attack on the fort was now general and open. They shot arrows 
with flaming splinters on the cabins, and poured vollies from their guns on 
the roofs to kill any that might get up to put it out. But they would slip 
a clapboard to one side underneath and put their hand out to remove it. The 
black man belonging to Sam. Henderson had a little garden adjoining the 
fort, the fence of which joined to his cabin on the corner. They set fire to 
this fence, but the men got inside the floor of the cabin, and dug till, with a 
forked stick, they could shove the fence away. So it burned out. * * They 
(the Indians) also dug a ditch, intending to undermine, which was noticed, 
—partly by the water being muddied below the place. They in the fort 
dug a ditch 6 or 8 feet deep, insid-e the cabins in the night, and threw the dirt 
out at the ontside doors. Here sentries were kept stationed to listen if they 
heard them dig. The Indians knew by this that they were found out. 
They then opened up a way to the ground, to see if they were near, or in the

fort. A negro they had, repeatedly put up his head to see. Three men were 
stationed with cooked rifles and directed to fire at the lower edge of the hole 
the moment the negro appeared. The Indians made it his burial place^ 
where he was afterwards found.’’ (e) 

(There is apparently no conclusion to this history of the siege, as the 
manuscript passes on to other subjects.-//.A. aS.) 


Moses Boone, son of Squire and nephew of Col. Daniel Boone, was 
a young boy in the fort at the time. Combining his personal recollections 
and stories heard from his father, he, also, left a very detailed account 
of the siege, which is preserved in the Draper Collection. It follows in 
general the narrative just given, with a few additions which we will 
give below:— -■ 

“The fore part of the day, perhaps about 9 or 10 o’clock the Indians^ 
made their appearance on the hill-side south of the fort in Indian file, about 
440, the forty were Canadians, and the 400 Indians under old Black-Fisfi; 
some 45 years old.” 

“Col. Boone had ordered the men who went to the treaty, as they could 
not take out their guns, to plape them loaded where they could conveniently 
seize them as they should enter the fort, well persuaded, as he was, of the 
ultimate result of the affair. But it was deemed best to carry out the 
treaty-matter, hoping it might end well—and moreover time would be gain,ed, 
a consideration of greatest moment, as the Holston men were momentarily 
expected—and every pains were taken to ward off treachery; the men at 
the Treaty were 8 or 9—most likely nine—Col. D. Boone, Col. Callaway, 
Maj. Smith, Squire Boone, -Bradley, others not recollected.” 

“The women were busy running bullets, making patches, etc. About’ 
35 men able to bear arms—ammunition scarce, and had to use it sparingly,’ 
for shots when Indians would be seen; men so few, that they could not get 
much rest, etc.” 

“The flag at the head of a tall sta^ some 40 or 50 feet high, became 
from the first a mark for the Indians, and after several dhys, they finlally 
cut off with their bullets the small — (illegible) just below the flag; and made 
a great rejoicing when the flag fell. The men soon had the pole down, the 
flag replaced, and again floating—and now, in turn, raised the hurra. The 
Indians remained quiet at this, and did not seem to try to shoot it down* 
again.” 

“Judge Boone thinks the main attack in the night, was the last night of 
the siege—but will not insist on it: The Indians that night showed a more 
determined intention to take the fort—would rush up with torches in their 
hands—these and the firing on both sides—and the united yelling, was quite 
animated—and it was so light in the fort, that any article could be plainly 
seen to be picked up in any part of the fort—some said even to a pin. But 
they were repulsed, and it was believed they suffered more severely that night 
than during any other part of the siege. The next morning by an hour by 
sun, not an Indian was to be seen—some few distant guns heard.” 

“During the siege, Indians would shoot arrows, some-with burning 
faggots attached, designed to fire the cabin roofs. A few old musket barrels, 
unbreeched, provided with swabs to use to put out fire, and would force out 
a pint or quart of water—at a time upon the roof; and several times were 







G32 


®f)e ^oone Jf amilp 


effectually used in extinguishing the fire. Almost every night, providentially, 
the rain fell, which wet the cabin roofs, and made them the more difficult to 
set on fire—and water was thus caught for the cattle and for use in the fort.^’ 
“Eleven days siege altogether—2 1-2 parleying, the balance fighting. 
A large quantity of bullets were picked up—they were stuck thick, partic¬ 
ularly around the port-holes for three feet around, in the bastions—so thick 
that they would strike against each other and fall down upon the ground— 
could afterwards scrape up the battered bullets by hand-fulls on the ground 
beneath the port holes.'' (/) 

BRYAN'S STATION AND THE BATTLE OF BLUE LICKS. 

In August, 1782 Bryan's (or Bryant's) Station, not far from Boones- 
borough, was besieged by about 600 Indians under the leadership of the 
notorious Simon Girty. 

It so happened that Bryan's Station was one of the few forts erected 
without a spring or well within its walls, and the water supply had to be 
brought from a spring some distance from the stockade. Knowing that 
the Indians were congregating nearby preparatory to an attack, the wo¬ 
men and children of the fort, said to have been led by one Jemima John¬ 
son, went bravely out of the stockade within sight of the lurking red 
skins, and with their buckets and pails procured enough water to supply 
them during the ensuing siege. 

Owing to this brave act of the women of Bryan's Station, the men 
of the fort were able to withstand the siege which followed and the In¬ 
dians were repulsed, but only to lead the white men, reenforced by the 
men of Boonesborough, into the ambush which led to the disasterous 
battle of Blue Licks the following day. In this encounter about a third 
of the white men were killed or taken prisoner, (g) 

Among the killed were Israel Boone, son of Col. Daniel Boone, and 
Daniel Boone's nephew Thomas, son of Samuel. Squire Boone, another 
son of Samuel, was seriously wounded, (h) 

A complete and very interesting account of the Siege of Bryan's 
Station and the Battle of Blue Licks, can be found in Filson Club Pub¬ 
lication, No. 12 “Bryan's Station." (h) 

An excerpt from Lyman C. Draper's interview with Daniel Bryan 
(nephew of Daniel Boone) in April 1844, also proves interesting. It 
«ays:— 

“Captain William Hays (Col. Daniel Boone's son-in-law) raised a party 
of about 12 men on Kentucky River, a dozen miles from Lexington, probably 
the second day of the siege and pressed on to Bryan's—found a fence built 
across the lane—partly torn down—not this cross fence, but the lane fence, 
and leaped over it into the field. The Indians were posted each side of the 
lane, for some twenty paces, and as Hay's party of horsemen dashed down 
the lane, they raised such a cloud of dust as to greatly screen them from the 
enemy's aim: and hence probably it was that they were not all cut off. Hays 
was wounded in the neck and came near falling from his horse, but escaped."

SKETCH OF BRYANTS STATION 

rom Description by Joseph Fieklin of Lexington, Kentucky, who was a young boy in the Station at the Time of the Siege 

By Cmirtesy of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin.

633 


A modern writer, H. Addington Bruce, gives the following graphic word- 
picture of the event: 

“It was at this juncture that the women of Bryan’s Station proved 
themselves the bravest and noblest of heroines. While all was con¬ 
fusion and anxiety; while, in excited whispers, the men were consulting 
together, Mrs. Jemima Sugget Johnson, the wife of Colonel Robert John¬ 
son and mother of Colonel Richard M. Johnson—afterwards a hero of 
the battle of the Thames and Vice-president of the United States, but then 
a tiny infant slumbering in a rough-hewn cradle—quietly stepped forward 
and offered to conduct a party of women and girls to the Indian-surrounded 
spring. 

“Every morning, she reminded her astonished hearers, it was the cus¬ 
tom of t,he women to go to the spring and procure the day’s supply of drink¬ 
ing water. There was just a chance that the India,ns in their eagerness to 
surprise the garrison, would not molest them if they went out as usual. At 
any rate she was ready to go, and she was sure that her daughter Betsy, a 
little girl of ten, would accompany her, even if nobody else would. 

“There was a moment’s hesitation while the women gazed inquiringly 
into one another’s faces. Then, one after the other, they announced their 
willingness to make the desperate attempt. The men would have dissuaded 
them had they not realized that this was the only possible means by which 
the all-essential water could be obtained.* * * * The rear gate of the stockade 
was thrown open, and the girls a,nd women, twenty-eight in all, set out on 
their perilous journey. 

“Along the narrow trail that wound down the hill to the spring, they 
leisurely made their way, laughing and chatting as though in entire ignorance 
of the danger threatening them. As they approached the undergrowth 
they could distinctly see, gleaming in the light of the morning sun, the glint 
of the Indian’s rifle-barrels; and here and there a waving plume, a lithe brown 
arm, and the glare of a savage eye. Not for an instant did they falter, but 
advancing with apparent unconcern, dipped their buckets and gourds, their 
piggins and noggins, into the spring, and returned to the stockade at the 
same leisurely gait. It was a consummate piece of acting, a marvellous 
exhibition of self control, and it completely deceived the Indians, who, 
intent on executing their original plan, permitted them to go and come un¬ 
harmed. 

“With their safe return the defender’s of Bryan’s Station hastened into 
action. While most of them stationed themselves at the port-holes over¬ 
looking the hill in the rear, the volunteers who were to engage the Indians 
on the trail dashed out, firing and shouting. * * * * Out of the cornfield, out 
of the weeds and grass, sprang the Indians, leaping like panthers up the long 
hill, whooping and hallooing, and bearing in their midst the flaming torch, 
dread instrument of the destruction that would ensue if they broke through 
the stockade. 

“Nearing the station, the entire mass of Indians converged towards 
the stockade gate. On they came, rapidly on, while the settlers, silent as 
death, grimly set their lips and waited. Still nearer they came. Then, 
at a hoarse word of command, a deadly volley flashed from every port-hole. 
Casting their rifles aside, and snatching others from the hands of their wives 
and daughters, the settlers fired again. Through the smoke could be heard 
howls of amazement, wrath and pain; and when the air had cleared not an 
Indian was to be seen save those who had been laid low by the garrison’s 
bullets. * * * * 




634

‘‘But there was no second charge, the Indians choosing rather to adopt 
their usual tactics of assailing the settlement with bullets and fire-arrows 
launched from cover. * * * Early in the afternoon, to the chagrin of the 
savages, a small party of horsemen, summoned from Lexington by a messen¬ 
ger who had left Bryan’s Station before the engagement began, forced their 
way through the Indians’ lines and entered the station without the loss of 
a single man. Their arrival not merely strengthened the garrison, but 
brought the siege to a sudden end; for, realizing that the entire countryside 
would soon be aroused, the Indians, after continuing their attack until 
nightfall, started in full retreat to the Ohio. 

“Next day three different relief parties, each about fifty strong, arrived 
from Boonesborough, Lexington, and Harrodstown. Among them were 
many of the best-known men in Kentucky. Foremost of all, of course, was 
Boone, burning to avenge the death of his brother Edward, who had been 
killed during an earlier Indian invasion. * * * The route taken by the Indians 
was soon ascertained, and pressing forward with great rapidity, the settlers 
by noon came to the place where the enemy had encamped the previous 
night. Thence the trail led to the lower Blue Lick, which was reached early 
in the morning of the nineteenth. All along the way, however, were signs 
indicating to the experienced veterans in the little army that the Indians 
were courting, rather than evading pursuit; and before fording the Licking 
another council of war was called, at which Boone declared that it would 
be majdness to proceed without Logan’s reinforcements, as the enemy were 
almost certainly setting a trap. This wise council might have been heeded 
had not McGary, with a taunting cry, spurred his horse into the river, 
swinging his rifle above his head, and exclaiming:— ‘Delay is dastardly! 
Let all who are not cowards follow me!’ * * * * 

“It could scarcely be called a battle, so quickly was it at an end. Rather 
was it a massacre, a butchery, a pitiless hewing down. All who, escaping 
the tomahawk, plunged headlong into the river and sought safety by swim¬ 
ming, found themselves assailed by a hail of bullets. * * * Of the army that 
had so gallantly, though recklessly, responded to McGary’s challenging appeal 
nearly seventy were left dead on the field, while four were carried off to the 
Indian towns, and tortured to death. * * * * Xo add to the bitterness of the 
defeat, as the survivors approached Bryan’s Station they were met by Logan 
with an army of almost five hundred men, a force which, in conjunction with 
their own, would have overwhelmed the enemy had they only heeded Boone’s 
warning. 

“It was then too late to do anything but bury the dead, as, on advanc¬ 
ing rapidly, Logan found that the Indians had crossed the Ohio immediately 
after the battle, and were secure in the tangled fastnesses of their own 
country.” {j)

PENSION APPLICATION OF A REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIER 

(As this 'pension application shows the 'military experience of a typical 
Revolutionary Soldier of that time and section of the country, it is given here 
instead of under Samuel Boone^s name [Ao. 81] in the genealogical section. 
There is no record of his descendants.) 

‘‘Sam. Boone (son of Sam. and nephew of Col. D. Boone) of Clark Co., 
Ky.; Declaration, 9th Sept., 1832: Was born 21st, March, 1758, on the 
Yadkin—entered the service in Camden District, S. C. in the fall of 1775, 
and went a tour of duty to the upper part of S. C., to Ninety Six— in 
that vicinity we had a battle with the Tories, and took 300 prisoners: Ren¬ 
dezvoused at the New Store, on the Copgaree; was in Col. John RusselFs 
Regiment. In July ’76, went to Charleston as a drafted militiaman, and 
served a 3 months’ tour, under Col. Robert Goodwin, and Gen. Joseph Ker¬ 
shaw— were in no battle that tour. In the fall of ’78, was again in service— 
under Gen. Lincoln—at Parisburg, in no battle; In 1779, served a tour under 
Gen. Williamson, and marched to Augusta. 

2d Declaration, 17th March, 1834; under former declaration, omitted 
to state his services against the Indians, being unaware that he would re¬ 
ceive credit. That when he was discharged (in 1779—) in South Carolina, 
hearing that his uncle Daniel Boone was raising a company in North Carolina 
to march to Kentucky, he went to Rowan County where Col. Boone was 
raising it, and entered it as a volunteer. They marched on the 15th of Sept., 

1779, and arrived at Boonesboro in October of the same year. The very 
next day after their arrival, he was ordered to Bryan’s, near Lexington, with 
a detachment to protect the families there settled, where they were placed 
under the command of Capt. William Hays. They immediately commenced 
a Station, which was afterwards called Bryan’s Station, which they did not 
complete till the spring of 1780. In that spring the Indians killed one of 
the company, and stole nearly all the horses. He aided in erecting nearly 
all the buildings erected there. He remained there in garrison until Oct., 

1780, when orders were received from Col. Boone to forward a detachment 
to reinforce Boone’s Station, when he marched as one of them and remained 
in garrison until in the spring of 1781, when he was sent with others under 
the command of Capt. Hayes to aid in building canoes for Gen. Clark’s army, 
to convey corn to him, then at the falls of Ohio. After that service, which 
only lasted 2 weeks, he returned to the Fort at Boone’s Station, where he 
remained in garrison defending it until April, 1782; in which month Col. 
Boone sent a detachment to Strode’s Station, which was then commanded by 
Capt. John Constant. There, at Capt. Constant’s request, applicant in 
company with Andrew Rule volunteered as spies, and served thirty days. 
After that he returned to Boone’s Station, where he remained until the 
middle of June, when he served a tour of thirty days as a spy under Capt. 
James Stevenson, ranging the country from Licking River to Big Bone Lick, 
after which he returned to the station. He remained in garrison until 2nd of 
August, when he was again detached under the command of Maj. John Holder 
in pursuit of a party of Indians who had taken two boys, named James Hay, 
son of Major Hay, and John Calloway, son of Col. Richard Calloway. They 
overtook the Indians at the Upper Blue Licks, and in the battle which ensued 
they were defeated, and returned to Boone’s Station. There he remained, 
and in a few days several of the wounded who were in the battle of the 
Lower Blue Licks were brought in, and he aided in taking care of them. He

remained in garrison doing duty until April, 1783. Resided in Fayette Co., 
Ky., until March, 1829, when he removed to Clark Co., and there has ever 
since resided, (k)

THE DANIEL BOONE PORTRAIT BY SULLY. 

The picture of Daniel Boone which is used as a frontispiece is no doubt 
either an imaginary picture by the artist Sully, or one painted by him from the 
portrait by Chester Harding*, which is said to be the only one of Daniel Boone 
painted from life, and is also said to have been frequently copied. 

At the time the engraving was made, the original painting by Thomas Sully 
was owned by Colonel Frank M. Etting of Philadelphia. Later it was in possess¬ 
ion of Colonel Etting^s nephew, Mr. Frank M. Etting of the same city; but it 
has now passed into other hands, and the present ownership of the picture cannot 
be ascertained. 

Thomas Sully (1783-1872) was one of the best of the early American painters, 
and was particularly noted for his portrait work. Among his best-known por¬ 
traits are those of Commodore Decatur, in the City Hall, New York; Thomas 
Jefferson, in the United States Military Academy at West Point; and General 
Lafayette, in Independence Hall, Philadelphia. Sully also went to England 
in 1837 and painted a remarkable portrait of the youthful Queen Victoria, the 
original study of which is now in our Metropolitan Museum of Art. Having 
been born nearly fifty years later than Daniel Boone, it is doubtful if Sully ever 
saw the old pioneer; or if so, it was in Boone’s old age. It is more probable 
that his knowledge of Boone’s appearance was gathered from the Harding por¬ 
trait. 

It must be admitted that the picture is not a true conception of Daniel 
Boone as we have learned to think of him. It is not a likeness of a sturdy fron¬ 
tiersman who could easily kill a “bar” or spend weeks alone in a wilderness; 
but rather that of a statesman or scholar,—perhaps a minister of the gospel. 
Although Sully was a talented artist, he was not a great enough man to admit 
that his subject, Boone, was a plain pioneer woodsman. Hedged about with 
the conventionalities of his period and perhaps living up to his reputation as a 
fashionable portrait painter. Sully divested Boone of his rough hunting clothes, 
and gave him the dress and bearing of the gentlemen of affairs whom the artist 
was in the habit of portraying. In them Boone himself would have been most 
ill at ease. How we long to take the book out of the pictured hand and place 
there instead a rifle or hunting knife! A book meant so little to Daniel Boone. 
Let us, for the sake of congruity, imagine the book to contain Boone’s surveying 
notes, perhaps the only book which he might have kept more or less constantly 
with him. 

Inaccurate as we find this conception of Boone regarding posture and attire, 
we can yet find much to admire in the clear, strong drawing of the face. In it 
we find that the painter Sully and the engraver Johnson have depicted something 
of that quiet dignity, that steadfast intentness of purpose, that clean-cut nobility 
of soul which made Daniel Boone the true gentleman which he was, and one whom 
we, his kinsmen, are proud to claim as our own. 

♦Harding’s portrait of Boone is described on page 579, and a reproduction of it is shown 
facing page 559.
